Mainstream genetic testing in cancer patients is performed through the patient’s own oncology team during their existing oncology appointments, with support as required from a familial cancer centre (FCC) or genetic service.
This learning activity for healthcare professionals takes a step-by-step approach to the mainstreaming process and its role in the management of cancer patients. It also outlines how oncology teams can implement mainstream genetic testing in their oncology units.
There are four modules available:
- Introduction to Mainstream Genetic Testing and the Mainstream Genetic Testing Process
- Genetic Testing in People with Breast Cancer
- Genetic Testing in People with Ovarian Cancer
- Genetic Testing in People with Prostate Cancer
