Despite its benefits, risk stratification faces several challenges:
1. Data Accuracy: Incomplete or inaccurate data can lead to incorrect risk assessments. 2. Ethical Concerns: Issues related to genetic testing, privacy, and the potential for discrimination. 3. Access to Healthcare: Not all patients have equal access to advanced diagnostic tools and personalized treatments. 4. Dynamic Nature of Cancer: Cancer risk can change over time, necessitating continuous monitoring and updates to risk profiles.
