Flow cytometry technique for dna or cell analysis, 16 or more markers

Flow cytometry is a method used to measure and analyze cells. It uses a beam of light to detect up to 16 or more markers on cells, helping to identify their type, function, or abnormalities. This technique aids in diagnosing various health conditions.

This service was performed 109 times for 107 patients

Flow cytometry technique for dna or cell analysis, 9 to 15 markers

Flow cytometry is a technique used to measure physical and chemical characteristics of cells or particles. It can analyze multiple markers (9 to 15) on a cell, helping to identify its type and function. This process can also examine DNA within cells for any abnormalities.

Genetic sequencing localization, initial procedure

Genetic sequencing localization is a process to identify where specific genes are located in your DNA. During the initial procedure, a sample of your cells is collected, usually through a simple swab or blood test. This data is then analyzed to pinpoint the location of certain genes. This can help understand your genetic makeup and potential health risks.

Special stained specimen slides to examine tissue, each additional procedure

Special stained specimen slides are used to analyze tissue in detail. In this process, extra procedures may be needed for a more thorough examination. These involve applying special stains to the tissue on slides, enhancing specific elements for closer study.

This service was performed 351 times for 46 patients

Special stained specimen slides to examine tissue, initial procedure

This procedure involves the use of specially stained slides to examine tissue samples. The initial process involves obtaining a small tissue sample from your body. This sample is then placed on a slide and stained with special dyes to highlight different structures and elements. The stained slide is then examined under a microscope to help diagnose any potential health issues.

This service was performed 57 times for 53 patients

Surgical pathology consultation and report on referred material requiring preparation of slides

A surgical pathology consultation involves the examination of tissue removed during surgery. The tissue is processed and slides are prepared for detailed study under a microscope. The findings are then compiled into a report to help guide your treatment plan.

This service was performed 57 times for 57 patients
