Organ and System Specific Panels

PsiGenex allows for a more targeted approach by offering nine hereditary cancer panels that are specific to each cancer type. These panels cover all of the high penetrance genes as well as other medium risk genes that have well-established evidence of association with common cancer syndromes.
