Genetics is no longer about hereditary and disease prevention; it is part of cancer treatment now, which is another reason why genetic screening should to be included in mainstream medicine. In genetic counselling, we empower people to be aware of their health risks and choices. We treat cancer effectively and prevent it. #healthcare #cancergenetics #geneticcounseling #familyhistorynurse #mainstreamtesting #cancer

Did you know that 1 in 10 Americans has a rare disease, and nearly 80 percent of them are genetic, with two-thirds being children? Wondering how genetic counseling works? Genetic counselors guide and support patients and families seeking more information about how inherited diseases and conditions might affect them or their families. They can help patients and families understand the risks, benefits, and limitations of genetic tests and interpret genetic testing results. Genetic counselors typically meet with patients and families prior to testing to discuss their options as well as when results are ready in order to discuss any diagnoses, changes in management, or next steps. Learn more about our programs and the amazing work that they do: https://lnkd.in/eVqRERY4 #genetics #geneticcounselors

Source: GeneReviews Canavan disease is a leukodystrophy characterized by neurodevelopmental delays, macrocephaly, and tone abnormalities. There are two types of Canavan disease: typical and atypical. Typical Canavan disease is more severe and presents with neurodevelopmental impairments followed by neurodegeneration and developmental regression. Atypical Canavan disease is less severe and has a more variable clinical course. Diagnosis can be made through biochemical or molecular genetic testing. Treatment involves multidisciplinary care and surveillance for various aspects of the disease. Canavan disease is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner.

https://lnkd.in/eV2yqQNY This study, published in JAMA Network Open, indicates that ~1/3 of early prostate cancer deaths among men at increased genetic risk may be preventable through healthy lifestyle behaviors. So, if you carry an inherited mutation in a cancer-related gene and/or have a high polygenic risk score (PRS) and/or have a family history of prostate, breast, ovarian, pancreatic, colon, or endometrial cancer in a close blood relative, consider that lifestyle modification can be particularly important to your long-term health.
