Фильм және анимация
Testing for the classic hereditary breast cancer genes, BRCA1 and BRCA2, has been available and widely offered since their discovery in the 1990s. However, new technologies in genetic testing have recently uncovered information about other genes linked to hereditary breast cancer. Join Carly Grant, MS, LCGC to learn about other hereditary breast cancer genes beyond BRCA1 and BRCA2.

I would like to see statistics from, not predictions of percentages, but actual case studies; I would also like a differentiation to be made between brca1 and brca2 in regards to actual breast cancers. My paternal Aunt M had breast cancer. Her daughter also had it. My Aunt Ms sister died of ovarian cancer at young age. I just learned I carry the brca2 gene, but am so far lucky at age 65. Three of my 4 daughters inherited the brca 2 gene. I am sad that my 32 yr old is getting mastectomy. There is not one proof she has any cancer. Also, why in world does the Karanos Cancer Center, where my genetic testing was done, say that third treatment option is Radiation? People seem to imply that brca2 gene means cancer, when I am living proof it does not!~!!
