Whole Genome / Exome Sequencing
This is an in-depth testing that sequences the entire human genome. The purpose is to assess the risks of cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and other related genetic disorders, with the genetic information kept at the hospital. The package includes four reports on test results regarding cancer, cardiovascular diseases, other related diseases, and pharmacogenomics. The results are based on the analysis of 203 gene variations. The test can help patients detect the diseases they may have early and manage the risks of developing cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and other diseases. This will be useful in planning for prevention and monitoring the genetic disease development. In addition, as Bumrungrad Hospital can retain the analyzed genetic data securely in accordance with international standards, patients can order other genetic tests related to the genetic test results retained (at an additional cost).
This program provides four reports on test results.
1.
Report on cancer risks: Analysis of 92 gene variations, covering 18 cancers as follows: 1) Breast cancer 2) Ovarian cancer 3) Uterine cancer 4) Colorectal cancer 5) Skin cancer 6) Stomach cancer 7) Pancreatic cancer 8) Prostate cancer 9) Renal cell cancer 10) Thyroid cancer 11) Sarcoma cancer 12) Leukemia 13) Brain cancer 14) Lung cancer 15) Endocrine gland cancer 16) Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) 17) Retinal cancer and 18) Other syndromes. Report on risks of cardiovascular diseases: Analysis of 98 gene variations covering six types of cardiovascular diseases as follows: 1) Aortic abnormalities. 2) Arrhythmias 3) Cardiomyopathy 4) Familial hypertension and Familial hyperlipidemia 5) Inherited vascular abnormalities and 6) Thrombosis.

Report on risks of other diseases: Analysis of 14 gene variations covering nine genetic metabolic diseases and other syndromes
Pharmacogenetics report: Analysis of 2 gene variations covering anesthesia hypersensitivity
This program is suitable for the following people.
• Those with a family history of cancer, cardiovascular diseases or other related diseases • Those healthy people without family history of cancer, cardiovascular diseases or other related diseases but seeking to find the risks of developing such diseases
