This service was performed 13 times for 12 patients

Detection test by nucleic acid for human papillomavirus (hpv), high-risk types

This test detects high-risk types of HPV, a common virus. It's done by analyzing a small sample of cells for the presence of HPV DNA. The aim is to identify any high-risk types early, as they may increase the risk of certain health issues.

This service was performed 101 times for 86 patients

Detection test by nucleic acid for neisseria gonorrhoeae (gonorrhoeae bacteria), amplified probe technique

This is a lab test that checks for the presence of a specific bacteria called Neisseria gonorrhoeae in your body. It uses a technique called amplified probe, which makes many copies of the bacteria's genetic material (nucleic acid) to help detect it more easily.

This service was performed 13 times for 12 patients

Infectious agent detection by nucleic acid (dna or rna); severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (sars-cov-2) (coronavirus disease [covid-19]), amplified probe technique, cdc or non-cdc, making use of high throughput technologies, completed within

This is a test to detect the COVID-19 virus. It uses a technique that amplifies the virus's genetic material (DNA or RNA) for detection. High throughput technologies are used for rapid and large-scale testing. The procedure is completed within a set time frame.

This service was performed 1,118 times for 357 patients

Infectious agent detection by nucleic acid (dna or rna); severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (sars-cov-2) (coronavirus disease [covid-19]), amplified probe technique, making use of high throughput technologies as described by cms-2020-01-r

This is a test for COVID-19. It uses high-tech methods to find the virus's genetic material in your body. The amplified probe technique helps detect the virus even in small amounts. This is crucial for early detection and effective treatment.

This service was performed 1,800 times for 673 patients

Microscopic genetic analysis of tissue, manual, each additional multiplex stain procedure

Microscopic genetic analysis of tissue is a detailed lab process that examines your cells' genetic material. If more than one stain procedure is needed, it's termed an 'additional multiplex stain procedure'. This helps to highlight different components within your cells, aiding in accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.

This service was performed 2,460 times for 671 patients

Microscopic genetic analysis of tumor, manual
