Why is genetic testing necessary for health checkup?
“ The genome contains genetic material and genetic information that govern various biological phenomena, such as height, eye color, and disease susceptibility ”
By analyzing the genome, we can identify variations in genetic factors that contribute to the development of diseases and provide clues about those diseases. This information can assist in making better decisions regarding individual disease prevention, management, medical interventions, and lifestyle improvements for better overall health.
The human body contains approximately 30,000 genes, and genes carry information that determines individual characteristics. Depending on genetic variants, recommended tests may differ as shown in the table below.
SNV analysis | Full gene analysis | |
---|---|---|
Examine certain gene regions (SNPs) which have relatively low correlationwith the likelihood of disease * Tens of bases |
Examine all gene regions which have high correlation with the likelihood of disease occurrence * Millions of bases |
|
Description | – It analyzes the singe nucleotide variant that makes people vulnerable to the disease
– Relatively low association to the disease – Relatively low clinical effectiveness |
– It analyzes the overall mutation of the genes related to the disease
– High desease association – High clinical effectiveness |
Test Method | PCR/Array/NGS | NGS |
Target | Healthy individuals | individuals with a family history of disease |
