Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is an advanced form of DNA sequencing technology that can be used to rapidly sequence the entirety of a person's genome in a cost-efficient manner. NGS has become a powerful tool in the detection, diagnosis and management of cancer cases. It allows doctors to compare the genetic profile of a tumor to the patient's normal cells, thereby helping to identify genes that are mutated or amplified in cancer cells. In addition, NGS can be used to detect rare genetic variants that may not have been previously detected, which may be associated with cancer risk or treatment response. By utilizing NGS, healthcare providers are able to provide more targeted therapies and personalized treatments for cancer patients, which can ultimately improve patient care.
