Should I Get Genetic Testing for Cancer Risks?

Genetic testing for cancer risk looks for inherited gene changes that may increase the likelihood of developing certain cancers.

Understanding individual risk and discussing options with a healthcare professional can help people make informed decisions about whether genetic testing is right for them.
