CGx Testing is a preventative gene test that looks for specific inherited changes (mutations) in a person’s genetic make-up. Harmful mutations may increase a persons’ chance, or risk, of developing a disease such as cancer. These conditions are considered hereditary. Appropriate genetic testing may be used to determine an individual’s risk and potential treatment options as indicated.
