What is Myriad Genetics® Testing?
Myriad Genetics® Testing is a comprehensive tool for evaluating genetic risks associated with hereditary health conditions. By analyzing gene mutations, this test provides information on your predisposition for various diseases, such as breast and ovarian cancer, colorectal cancer, and cardiovascular conditions. Dr. Skura uses genetic testing to tailor prevention and treatment plans based on your genetic profile.
Benefits of Myriad Genetics® Testing
Understanding your genetic risks allows for early detection, prevention strategies, and personalized care. Myriad Genetics® Testing helps identify inherited conditions, enabling you to take proactive steps to manage your health effectively. Dr. Skura uses this test to guide patients in creating tailored wellness plans, improving long-term health outcomes.
Candidates for Myriad Genetics® Testing
Myriad Genetics® Testing is beneficial for individuals with a family history of genetic conditions or those seeking to understand their hereditary health risks. It is particularly useful for patients concerned about cancers, cardiovascular conditions, or other genetic disorders. Dr. Skura evaluates each patient’s medical history and health goals to determine whether Myriad Genetics® Testing is appropriate for them.
What to Expect During Myriad Genetics® Testing
The testing process is simple and non-invasive. Patients visit ArtMedica for a blood draw or saliva sample, which is then sent to Myriad Genetics® for analysis. Dr. Skura carefully reviews the results, explaining any identified genetic risks and recommending personalized care plans. If testing reveals significant genetic risks, Dr. Skura collaborates with patients to create preventive strategies, which may include additional screenings, lifestyle adjustments, or referrals to specialists for further care.
