Is Pancreatic Cancer in Your Genes? Understanding Risk, Testing, and Early Detection
On this episode of Living Hope, we explore the Genetics of Pancreatic Cancer with genetic counselor Chelsey Torres. We discuss the main types of pancreatic cancer, the difference between hereditary, familial, and sporadic cases, and why genetic testing is so important for those with a strong family history. Chelsey also highlights the role of early detection programs, the realities of inconclusive results, and how lifestyle choices can impact risk—while reminding us that awareness and proactive screening remain key.
