Targeted gene sequencing has numerous applications in oncology:
Diagnosis: It helps in the accurate diagnosis of cancer by identifying specific genetic mutations associated with different cancer types. Prognosis: Certain genetic alterations can provide prognostic information, helping to predict the course of the disease. Therapeutic Decisions: It aids in the selection of targeted therapies that are most likely to be effective for a particular patient, enhancing treatment outcomes. Research: It supports cancer research by providing insights into the genetic basis of cancer, which can lead to the discovery of new therapeutic targets.
