Our highly sensitive BRCA1 and BRCA2 Panel covers these two genes as they are the most common genes associated with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. Individuals with pathogenic mutations in one of these tumor suppressor genes have a significantly increased risk of developing hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome, as well as other cancers.
