The Germano de Sousa Group (GGS) and its Clinical Management team announce that, in accordance with the law, it complies with and implements all directives issued by the Directorate-General for Health (DGS) regarding the prevention and control of infection by the novel coronavirus-2019 (SARS-CoV-2). This is the official procedure that must be followed by everyone following the entry into force of the DGS regulation.

EndoPredict is a genomic test that uses precise molecular analysis of genes relevant to the likelihood of breast cancer recurrence.
It is performed using a device that quantifies the activity of the relevant genes present in the tumor using a very small sample that can be obtained from a previously collected sample, a surgical specimen, or a needle biopsy...

Genetic compatibility testing (carrier screening) is a genetic test that combines different molecular technologies to determine whether an individual—who does not, a priori, have an increased risk of being a carrier—is a carrier of mutations associated with autosomal recessive or X-linked disorders.

Prenatal Diagnosis – First-Trimester Combined Screening makes it possible to determine the probability of trisomy 21 (Down syndrome) in maternal blood, as well as the presence of other genetic abnormalities such as trisomy 18 (Edwards syndrome) or trisomy 13 (Patau syndrome) in the developing fetus.

Known as Down syndrome or trisomy 21, it results from an abnormality in the cell division process of the fertilized egg, causing the individual to develop an extra copy of chromosome 21. In other words, instead of two, there are three copies.

Malaria is a parasitic disease caused by the intracellular protozoan Plasmodium and is transmitted to humans through the bite of the Anopheles mosquito. There are four species of Plasmodium: vivax, falciparum, ovale, and malariae. The vivax species is the most common, and falciparum is the most severe, being fatal in certain clinical cases.

Measles is one of the most contagious viral infections; it spreads from person to person through droplets or aerosols. The disease is usually mild, but in some cases, it can be severe or even fatal.
