Next Generation Sequencing Discussion Tool

Biomarker testing through NGS technology has driven precision oncology by delivering faster, cheaper, and more accurate biomarker data. Results from NGS testing can help to diagnose cancer, personalize treatment, determine prognosis, or evaluate hereditary cancer risk. This nurse-patient discussion tool reviews common questions and answers to educate a patient about the biomarker testing process and what the results could mean for their treatment.
