The Intersection of Gynecology and Genetics: Implications for Personalized Medicine
Author(s): Wesley C. Burkett*
The intersection of gynecology and genetics represents a rapidly evolving field with profound implications
for personalized medicine. This review explores the integration of genetic testing and genomic technologies
into gynecological practice, focusing on their impact on screening, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of
gynecological conditions. By examining recent advancements in genetic testing modalities, including nextgeneration
sequencing and polygenic risk scores, this paper highlights the potential of genomics to revolutionize
patient care in gynecology. Through personalized risk assessment, targeted interventions, and precision medicine
approaches, the integration of gynecology and genetics holds promise for improving outcomes and transforming
the delivery of care for women with gynecological disorders... View More»
