Genomic Testing

 

The gene testing employs innovative Next Generation Sequencing to identify individual’s disease or cancer risk so that prevention is possible fulfilling quality aging.  The genome sequencing is performed on the individual’s blood or saliva sample or directly from the tumour material. The latter permits search for effective anticancer targeted therapy.  

 

The genetic tests are performed at reputable and accredited international centres and interpreted by licensed geneticists.  Medical support and confirmation by advanced imaging and laboratory tests are also carried out by highly qualified and experienced medical team.  Varieties of genomic tests are available in our centre, they include the following:

 

Pharmacogenomics

​

Individualized drug metabolism (up to 300 drugs) and response can be identified through genomic analysis.  It also allows prediction of drug side effects.  This information enables the treating physician to prescribe the correct drug precisely with the right dosage to achieve a successful predictable outcome without significant side effect. 

​

Children DNA Analysis

​

Modern society has demanded extra contributions from parenthood aside from feeding, educating and protecting their offspring from ill health & bad living conditions.  Similarly, genomic testing on children is now not limited to identifying hereditary disease but also their inherent physical, mental and intellectual characteristics.  Such foresight on the child’s hidden talent, physical capability, EQ & IQ, makes parenthood rewarding & more focus as it is possible to fine tune & accelerate their offspring’s potential. This gives them a brighter future, better self-development & higher achievement in life. They can contribute more to their next generation and society. 

​

Genomic Testing of Common Medical Conditions

​

Common medical conditions such as diabetes, cancer, stroke, heart attack may be hereditary. This inborn risk can now be detected using genetic testing. The risk stratification can be used to develop a disease surveillance programme using state of the art medical imaging (such as CT or MRI for vascular stenosis, PET-CT for presence of tumour).

Why our genetic tests are trustworthy? 
 

• Detection technology: NGS generation sequencing

• Laboratory Certification: U.S. CLIA Certification

• Sampling method: 3ml Saliva sample; painless, non-invasive, and safe

• Appropriate age: Genetic tests are suitable for different people & age from 3 months to adulthood

• Reporting time: Depending on the test items and detection techniques, the time required to achieve the report will vary. In general: Cancer and disease testing takes 12-16 weeks, 10-12 weeks for paediatric and gynaecological tests and 10 weeks for skin and nutrition tests.
