Cancer treatment is becoming increasingly personalized, thanks to incredible scientific advancements. In this video, we break down key concepts that are transforming how cancer is diagnosed and treated: Biomarker Testing, Next Generation Sequencing (NGS), and Liquid Biopsies.

You'll learn:
What biomarker testing is and why it's crucial for understanding your cancer.
How Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) allows doctors to analyze many genes in a tumor simultaneously.
The difference between a traditional tissue biopsy and a liquid biopsy, and when each is used.
Real-world examples of how personalized medicine, driven by these technologies, is improving patient outcomes in various cancers.

If you or a loved one are impacted by cancer, understanding these tools can empower you to have more informed conversations with your care team.
