What is CGX? - Introduction To Cancer Genomics ( CGX )

Some people inherit mutations in the germ line allowing for the mutations to be passed on from their parents and to their children.

Hereditary or Predisposition Cancer Genomics Molecular testing looks for specific inherited changes (mutations) in a person's genetic makeup.
There are two classes of cellular genes: oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes.
Often multiple genetic mutations in a single individual are responsible for the development of hereditary cancers.
Mutations that are harmful may increase a person's chance or risk of developing a disease such as cancer

Genetic mutations may have multiple different effects on a person's health. These particular conditions are considered hereditary and appropriate genetic testing may be used to determine an individual's risk.
