title: Clinical management where medicine meets management. Array of hope.
abstract: Routine use of genetic profiling for managing some cancers could soon be a reality. Its wider application in cancer care will require substantial public investment in research and development, IT and setting up a service infrastructure. The first commercial test kits for breast cancer prognosis have already been launched in Europe and the US.
