Sydney, April 29 -- Medical researchers have developed advanced computational tools that significantly improve the accuracy of genetic testing for inherited cancer risk, an Australian government research institute has revealed. The accuracy of genetic testing has been significantly improved particularly in people with Li-Fraumeni Syndrome, a rare, inherited cancer predisposition syndrome caused by faults in the TP53 gene, which significantly increases the risk of developing multiple types of cancer, according to a news release of the QIMR Berghofer (formerly the Queensland Institute of Medical Research) on Monday.
