这些癌症遗传咨询建议从2004年的原始出版物更新而来，描述了通过有或没有基因检测的遗传癌症风险评估对高危个体进行咨询的医学、社会心理和伦理后果。它们是由国家遗传咨询师协会家族癌症风险咨询特别兴趣小组的实践问题小组委员会成员制定的。本文档中包含的信息来源于对当前癌症遗传风险评估和咨询文献的广泛审查，以及专门从事癌症遗传学的遗传咨询师的个人专业知识。这些建议旨在提供有关遗传性癌症疾病的遗传咨询和风险评估过程的信息，而不是关于个别综合征的具体信息。基本组成部分包括摄入量、癌症风险评估、遗传性癌症综合征的基因检测、知情同意、基因检测结果的披露和心理社会评估。这些建议不应被解释为规定了唯一的管理方法，使用这些建议也不能保证取得特定的结果。这些建议并不取代卫生保健提供者基于客户临床情况的专业判断。
Updated from their original publication in 2004, these cancer genetic counseling recommendations describe the medical, psychosocial, and ethical ramifications of counseling at-risk individuals through genetic cancer risk assessment with or without genetic testing. They were developed by members of the Practice Issues Subcommittee of the National Society of Genetic Counselors Familial Cancer Risk Counseling Special Interest Group. The information contained in this document is derived from extensive review of the current literature on cancer genetic risk assessment and counseling as well as the personal expertise of genetic counselors specializing in cancer genetics. The recommendations are intended to provide information about the process of genetic counseling and risk assessment for hereditary cancer disorders rather than specific information about individual syndromes. Essential components include the intake, cancer risk assessment, genetic testing for an inherited cancer syndrome, informed consent, disclosure of genetic test results, and psychosocial assessment. These recommendations should not be construed as dictating an exclusive course of management, nor does use of such recommendations guarantee a particular outcome. These recommendations do not displace a health care provider's professional judgment based on the clinical circumstances of a client.
