Test Overview & Methodology
This 154-gene NGS panel identifies inherited mutations linked to hereditary cancers, aiding risk assessment and personalized prevention. The assay employs ultra-high precision Next-Generation Sequencing to detect single nucleotide variants, insertions, deletions, and copy number alterations across the full hereditary cancer spectrum.
| Feature | Our Test โ Comprehensive 154-Gene Panel | Closest Alternative โ Single-Gene Sequencing |
|---|---|---|
| Methodology | Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) โ ultra-high precision | Sanger sequencing or limited PCR-based, may miss variants |
| Gene Coverage | 154 genes โ full hereditary cancer spectrum | 1โ2 genes (e.g., BRCA1/2 only) |
| Turnaround Time | 4โ6 weeks (comprehensive bioinformatics) | 3โ4 weeks (limited interpretation) |
| Clinical Support | Pre- and post-test genetic counseling included | Often minimal or no counseling |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
โGenetic testing for hereditary cancer susceptibility is a profound step toward proactive health stewardship. This 154-gene panel provides a comprehensive molecular roadmap, but the emotional context is equally important. Our counseling framework ensures each patient receives compassionate, individualized guidance before and after testing.โ

Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. Who should consider this 154-gene hereditary cancer panel?
Answer: Individuals with a strong family history of cancer, multiple primary malignancies, or early-onset tumors should consider this comprehensive panel to uncover inherited mutations and guide surveillance. A genetic counselor or oncologist can help determine if this test is appropriate for your specific risk profile.
2. What preparation is required before the blood draw?
Answer: No fasting or special preparation is required. A standard peripheral whole blood sample is collected via our VIP mobile phlebotomy service at your preferred location between 8 AM and 11 PM, then transported under temperature-controlled cold-chain conditions to our ISO-accredited laboratory for NGS analysis.
3. How long does it take to receive results, and who interprets them?
Answer: Results are delivered within 4โ6 weeks. Our DHA-licensed consultant in medical genetics provides a detailed interpretative report along with a telephonic consultation to discuss findings, implications for family members, and recommended next steps for surveillance or risk reduction.
