Chimerism analysis post transplantation, with cell selection

Chimerism analysis post-transplantation is a test done to monitor your body's acceptance of a transplanted organ or cells. It checks if the new cells are working well with your own. Cell selection helps to focus on specific cell types for a more detailed analysis.

This service was performed 20 times for 20 patients

Chimerism analysis post transplantation, without cell selection

Chimerism analysis post-transplantation is a test done to monitor the success of a bone marrow or stem cell transplant. It checks if the patient's body has accepted the new cells and if these cells are functioning properly. This version of the test does not involve specific cell selection.

This service was performed 24 times for 24 patients

Comparative analysis using short tandem repeat (str) markers of patient and specimen

Comparative analysis using STR markers is a technique to match DNA samples. It involves comparing specific regions of your DNA with a specimen's DNA. This helps to confirm if the DNA in the specimen belongs to you or not, ensuring accuracy in diagnosis and treatment.

This service was performed 15 times for 15 patients

Examination of archival tissue for genetic analysis

Examination of archival tissue for genetic analysis involves studying previously collected tissue samples. This process helps detect any genetic alterations that may be linked to certain diseases. It's a crucial step in understanding your health and planning appropriate treatments.

This service was performed 13 times for 12 patients

Gene analysis (epidermal growth factor receptor), common variants

Gene analysis of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) identifies common variants in this particular gene. This test helps in understanding your body's response to certain medications. It aids in personalized treatment planning, ensuring the most effective care.

This service was performed 58 times for 57 patients

Gene analysis (hemochromatosis) common variants

Gene analysis for hemochromatosis common variants is a test that checks for specific changes in your DNA. These changes could indicate a higher risk of developing hemochromatosis, a condition that causes your body to absorb too much iron from your diet.

This service was performed 30 times for 30 patients

Gene analysis (kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog), additional variants

Gene analysis of the Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) checks for extra variations in the KRAS gene. These variations may impact how your body responds to certain treatments. It's a non-invasive test, usually done on a blood or tissue sample.

This service was performed 66 times for 65 patients

Gene analysis (neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinase 1, 2, and 3) translocation analysis

Gene analysis for neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinase (NTRK) 1, 2, and 3 translocation is a test that checks for changes in your genes. These changes can impact how cells grow and divide, which can affect your health. It's a way to catch problems early.

This service was performed 69 times for 67 patients

Gene analysis (v-ki-ras2 kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene) variants in codons 12 and 13

Gene analysis for v-ki-ras2 kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene variants in codons 12 and 13 is a test to identify specific changes in your genes. These changes could potentially indicate a higher risk for certain types of cancer.

This service was performed 69 times for 69 patients

Gene analysis (v-raf murine sarcoma viral oncogene homolog b1)

Gene analysis of v-raf murine sarcoma viral oncogene homolog b1 (BRAF) is a test that examines your DNA to identify changes or mutations in the BRAF gene. This information can help in diagnosing and treating certain diseases, including some types of cancer.

This service was performed 84 times for 84 patients

Gene analysis for cancer (neuroblastoma)

Gene analysis for neuroblastoma is a test that studies your genes to identify abnormalities linked to this type of cancer. It helps doctors tailor treatment plans, potentially improving outcomes and reducing side effects.

This service was performed 17 times for 17 patients

Microsatellite instability analysis

Microsatellite instability analysis is a test that checks for abnormalities in your DNA, which could indicate a higher risk for certain types of cancers. It is a useful tool for early detection and prevention.

This service was performed 19 times for 19 patients

Microscopic genetic analysis of tumor, manual

Microscopic genetic analysis of a tumor involves examining your tumor's genes under a microscope. This helps identify specific genetic changes in the tumor cells. This information can aid in diagnosing, predicting disease progression, and determining the most effective treatment options.

This service was performed 15 times for 15 patients

Molecular pathology procedure; physician interpretation and report

A molecular pathology procedure involves analyzing your body's cells at a molecular level to identify any abnormalities. This can help detect diseases early. A physician will interpret the results and provide a detailed report, explaining the findings clearly.

This service was performed 180 times for 137 patients

Preparation of specimen, manual

The preparation of a specimen manually is a procedure where a sample from your body is collected by a healthcare professional. This could be blood, urine, or tissue. The sample is then prepared in a lab for further analysis to help diagnose or monitor your health condition.

This service was performed 11 times for 11 patients

Test for detecting genes associated with cancer of body organ

This test identifies specific genes linked with body organ cancer. It's a simple process where a sample of your blood or saliva is collected. The sample is then analyzed in a lab to find any genetic changes that might increase cancer risk. It's a proactive step to manage your health.

This service was performed 133 times for 133 patients
