Conditions

The study focuses on the following key aspects related to these conditions: BRCA1/BRCA2 Gene Mutations: The research centers on the screening and testing of these specific gene mutations in high-risk breast cancer patients. Hereditary Cancer Syndromes: Beyond breast cancer, the project examines access to services for patients with various types of hereditary cancers that can be identified through genetic testing. Cascade Testing in Relatives: The study also addresses the health of at-risk rel

Interventions
