Summary

This study looked at whether a short video could help parents and teens better understand genetic testing after a child's cancer diagnosis. Researchers gave the video to 355 families at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and measured their knowledge before and after receiving test results. The goal was to see if the video was helpful and easy to use, not to treat the disease itself.
