Abstract

The integration of genomics and molecular diagnostics holds great promise for advancing radiology and laboratory testing. Genomics utilizes an individual's  DNA sequence and other molecular markers to provide personalized health information. Molecular diagnostics analyzes biological markers to detect diseases, determine prognosis, and guide treatment decisions. As the costs of DNA sequencing and molecular testing decline, their clinical integration becomes increasingly feasible
