What the laboratory says this test is for
The Hereditary Breast Cancer Panel includes 18 genes associated primarily with hereditary breast and possibly other cancers. This can include, but is not limited to, cancers of the breast, colon, endometrium, stomach, urinary tract, ovary, pancreas, prostate, and other tissues. Individuals with a positive result (pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant detected) have an increased risk for developing certain cancers relative to that of the general population.
