Cancer is a serious disease characterized by the uncontrolled growth and division of certain body cells, which can subsequently spread to other organs and tissues. Among the most common types of cancer are lung cancer, prostate cancer, colorectal cancer, and breast cancer. Advances in molecular genetic studies have enabled the personalization of cancer prevention, surveillance, and treatment. One such advancement is targeted immunotherapy. Techniques such as PCR analysis, whole-exome sequencing, and whole-genome sequencing, based on the Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) method, play a pivotal role in these personalized approaches. In this video, you will also find insights into these key questions: 1. What does oncology mean? 2. What does oncogenetics mean? 3. How does the use of molecular genetic research contribute to the development of personalized medicine in oncology? 4. What molecular genetic studies exist and which of them are the most effective? 5. Who can undergo genetic testing according to clinical guidelines? 6. What oncological genetic tests do we conduct? 7. What specialty of physician can refer a patient for genetic testing? 8. How does cancer affect everyone in the family? 9. What advice would you give to patients and oncologists?
