}}Clinicogenomics, also referred to as [https://www.garvan.org.au/research/kinghorn-centre-for-clinical-genomics/clinical-genomics/learn-about-genomics/what-is-clinical-genomics clinical genomics], is the study of clinical outcomes with genomic data. Genomic factors have a causal effect on clinical data. Clinicogenomics uses the entire genome of a patient in order to diagnose diseases or adjust medications exclusively for that patient. Whole genome testing can detect more mutations and structural anomalies than targeted gene testing.[1][2] Furthermore, targeted gene testing can only test for the diseases for which the doctor screens, whereas testing the whole genome screens for all diseases with known markers at once.[1][3] UsesClinicogenomics is currently used in personalized medicine such as pharmacogenomics and oncogenomics. By studying the whole genome, a physician is able to construct medical plans based on an individual patient's genome rather than generic plans for all patients with the same diagnosis. For example, researchers are able to identify the mutations that cause a particular kind of cancer by studying the genomes of many patients with that cancer type, such as in a study of renal tumors that were previously only diagnosed through morphological anomalies.[4] Furthermore, researchers can identify the medications and treatments that work best on particular cancer-causing mutations, which can then be applied to treat future patients.[5] Clinicogenomics can also be used in preventative medicine by sequencing a patient's genome prior to a diagnosis in order to identify the known mutations related to medical conditions. In the future, patients could be sequenced at birth and periodically throughout our lives to be cautious of potential health risks and prepare for probable future diagnoses.[6] Through preventative care, patients will be able to change their lifestyles and behaviors to reflect their genetic predisposition to certain conditions.[7] For example, if a woman knows she has BRCA1, she can be more proactive about mammograms, Pap smears and other preventative care to help increase her odds of survival despite her likelihood of cancer. By detecting cancer earlier or preventing the development of diseases such as diabetes, health care costs for individuals implementing preventative medicine based on genomic data will decrease.[7] ChallengesBelow are a few of the major challenges facing the usage of clinicogenomics by health care providers today. Other challenges also exist, such as the expense of [https://genomemedicine.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/gm205 genome sequence analysis] and whether or not [https://ghr.nlm.nih.gov/primer/testing/insurancecoverage insurance companies] provide coverage for sequencing. Physician data sharingOne of the difficulties of genome testing is the amount of data from a sequence and the dozens of formats in which that data can come. This data needs to be standardized and added to electronic health record Patient privacyOne of the concerns of utilizing clinicogenomics is the privacy of the patients throughout the process of collecting the DNA, analyzing the genome, and delivering the interpreted data to health care providers. In a study using HIV patients, the researchers encrypted the raw genetic data prior to analysis in order to maintain the anonymity of the patient. Then, a scientist without any previous knowledge of the patient interpreted the encrypted data. A report was produced and given to the physician for further study if applicable.[10] References1. ^1 Veltman, Joris A., and James R.
