Next-generation sequencing for cancer treatment. Says MCSC expert Zhukova L.G.
Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) is a modern method of molecular genetic diagnostics.
- Today, using NGS, it is possible to sequence the entire human genome in one day. When choosing the tactics of treating oncological diseases, such a study helps to most accurately determine the type and composition of the tumor, its possible metastasis and to select an effective personalized therapy for each patient.
