Known or Targeted mutation detection for Breast and Ovarian cancer predisposition:
Identifies risk for family members with known mutation information in the family

BRCA1 and BRCA2 Full gene sequencing:
Full gene sequencing of BRCA1 and BRCA2 tumor suppressor genes identifies thousands of mutations associated with risk pathology of breast and ovarian cancer.

Extended Breast and Ovarian Cancer predisposition Gene Panel:
Breast cancer susceptibility is associated with germline mutations in several genes. Our extended panel includes several genes other than BRCA1 and BRCA2 reported in asian population such as PTEN, TP53,PALB2, CDH1, STK11, ATM, BARD1, BRIP1, CDH1, CDKN2A, CHEK2, MLH1, MSH6, NF1, PALB2, PMS2, PTEN, RAD51C, and RAD51D.
