Key activities of NSWOG Cancer Genetics

  • Review of Cancer Genetic Services in NSW

This review was conducted in 2006, with the aim to support Program 18.2 of the NSW Cancer Plan (2004-2006) by providing information and baseline data about Cancer Genetics Services that people at risk of familial cancer are able to access in NSW. The review provides information to the Cancer Institute NSW that will help it identify key trends, prioritise needs, and inform the basis of future service development in NSW.
