1. Genetic counseling and medical information collection: The first step is genetic counseling with a doctor or genetics specialist. During this process, you will provide information about your family and personal medical history, including any cases of cancer that have occurred, especially in close family.

2. Risk assessment and test selection: Based on the information collected, your doctor will assess your risk and decide whether genetic testing is necessary.

3. Collect samples: If you decide to proceed with the test, your doctor will collect a blood sample or cell sample from your mucosa for examination.

4. Perform the test: A blood sample or cell sample is sent to a laboratory to perform specific tests, such as genetic testing, HPV testing, or other testing depending on the goal of the process.

5. Analyze results: Once the tests are completed, the results will be analyzed by experts to assess disease risk and make recommendations for follow-up care.

6. Consulting and guidance: Once the results are available, your doctor or genetic specialist will advise and explain the meaning of the results, along with appropriate care and prevention options.
