We can get these data points relatively easily now, but the difficulty in managing them in a way that can really improve medical care is * * * to enjoy them, integrate them across patient groups and data types, and analyze them, and so on. -Still the main obstacle to our progress.
Precision medicine (PM) is a medical model of individualized medical treatment according to patients' individual conditions, including medical decision-making, treatment, practice and drugs.
In this medical model, the diagnostic test will cooperate with the patient's gene molecular analysis or other cell analysis to choose the appropriate best treatment method. Tools used in precision medicine include molecular diagnosis, imaging and analysis.
Extended data:
technical superiority
As the next generation of diagnosis and treatment technology, precision medicine has great technical advantages compared with traditional diagnosis and treatment methods. Compared with traditional diagnosis and treatment methods, precision medicine is accurate and convenient. On the one hand, the mutant genes of cancer can be found by gene sequencing, so that the symptomatic drugs can be quickly determined, which saves the time for patients to try various treatment methods and improves the treatment effect.
On the other hand, gene sequencing only needs the patient's blood or even saliva, and does not need traditional pathological sections, which can reduce the harm to the patient's body during diagnosis. It can be predicted that the emergence of precision medical technology will significantly improve the diagnosis and treatment experience and effect of cancer patients, with great development potential.
