Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT) for Hereditary Cancer Syndromes

12:00 AM - 1:00 PM

Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT) for Hereditary Cancer Syndromes

As more individuals are undergoing genetic testing for cancer and sharing this information with their family members, more people are learning about their genetic cancer risk and potentially learning about this risk while they are still in their reproductive years and making reproductive decisions. Learn how patients can reduce the risk for a genetic cancer predisposition in the next generation and increase your understanding of PGT. This nursing continuing professional development activity was approved by the Georgia Nurses Association, an accredited approver by the American Nurses Credentialing Center’s Commission Accreditation.
