How are Genomic Assays Integrated into Clinical Practice?
The integration of genomic assays into clinical practice involves a multidisciplinary approach, often including oncologists, pathologists, genetic counselors, and bioinformaticians. The results of genomic assays are used in conjunction with other diagnostic tests and clinical information to develop a comprehensive treatment plan. In some cases, the findings from these assays may also qualify patients for participation in clinical trials exploring new targeted therapies.
