Abstract:
The ethical issue of medical genetic testing is one of the highly concerned and controversial issues in the field of life sciences.With the rapid development of genomics research,the possibility of using genetic testing for disease risk assessment in clinical events has been increased,especially in precision medical genetic testing and preventive testing.By reviewing the current status and common ethical issues of the clinical application of genetic testing,and sorting out the corresponding ethical principles,this paper proposed the ethical principles of equal respect,informed consent,privacy protection,and non-harm,aiming to help medical staff to regulate diagnosis and treatment behavior,enhance their awareness of the ethical aspects of genetic testing,as well as promote the better development of genomics research.
