What are the Types of Genetic Sequencing in Cancer?
Several types of genetic sequencing are commonly used in cancer research and treatment:
Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS): Analyzes the entire genome to provide a comprehensive view of genetic alterations. Whole Exome Sequencing (WES): Focuses on the exome, which includes all the protein-coding regions of the genome. Targeted Sequencing: Examines specific genes or regions known to be associated with certain cancers.
