伊丽莎白诺维娜医院基因组健康中心

Our Genetic Testing Edge

我们中心提供 5 种临床基因检测。临床基因检测又称医学级基因检测,涉及一个严格的过程,与直接面向消费者的基因检测(又称商业基因检测)相比具有显著优势。下面了解更多信息。

临床基因检测与直接面向消费者的基因检测有何不同?

直接面向消费者(商业)的基因检测主要用于非临床目的,如指导你的健康、确定你的祖先和了解你的原籍国。

然而,直接面向消费者的基因检测是有限的,不够准确,无法检测出潜在的健康问题,因此不能用于做出明智的医疗决定。

而临床(医疗级)基因检测则更为复杂,从基因咨询过程、结果分析到潜在诊断,自始至终都由经认证的临床医生进行操作和监督。与直接面向消费者的基因检测相比,临床基因检测的主要目的是评估你的遗传背景,发现 DNA 中潜在的变异和突变。

这意味着临床基因检测能提供更深入的结果,能让您全面了解自己对某些疾病(如癌症和心脏病)的遗传倾向,更好地指导您下一步可能采取的措施。
