In other words, even among patients who apparently have the same disease and symptoms, the treatment for each one would be determined by various predictive or prognostic tests. Eventually, these tests could extend even to the sequencing of the DNA in an individual patient’s cancer cells, for example.
换句话说，即使是显然患有相同疾病、出现相同症状的患者，每个人的治疗方案也将由诸多预报性检查决定。这些检查可能会深及具体患者癌细胞的DNA序列。
