Genetic Testing - Why, When and Whom
... If we don’t know the mutation in the family, the genetic tests serves to answer the question “Is there a significant mutation present in this gene?”. If this person tests positive, then he/she has a risk of developing that disease. Similar to the above situation, this risk may be complicated to quan ...
