Development of Genetic Tests for DTC.

The process of development of genetic tests for DTC involves identification of genetic changes that are associated with an aggressive course of DTC, development of a reliable test for identifying these changes from patient samples, and understanding how to apply this knowledge to patient care. The principal aim is to ensure that the use of genetic tests in DTC actually improves patient care as indicated by decreased morbidity of DTC treatment and increased survival of high-risk DTC patients.
