Doctor in the House: Genetic Testing for Breast Cancer

What does genetic testing have to do with breast cancer? What can a genetic test tell you, and does every woman need it in order to know her risk of developing breast cancer? We unpack these questions with Yoon Sook Yee, Head of Genetic Counselling, and Dr Low Ley Hian, Head of Business Development, from Cancer Research Malaysia’s newly-established genetic testing services, GENETIX.
