Technical Advantages of Precision Medicine

Precision medicine, as a next-generation diagnostic and treatment technology, has great technical advantages over traditional diagnostic and treatment methods. Compared with traditional diagnostic and treatment methods, precision medicine is accurate and convenient. On the one hand, gene sequencing can identify the mutated genes of cancer, so as to quickly determine the symptomatic drugs, saving patients' time to try various treatments, and enhancing the therapeutic effect; on the other hand, gene sequencing only requires the patient's blood or even saliva, and does not require the traditional pathology section, which can minimize the damage to the patient's body in the diagnostic process. It is foreseeable that the emergence of precision medicine technology will significantly improve the diagnostic and treatment experience of cancer patients and diagnostic and treatment effects, with great development potential.
