Cancer Targeted Gene Panel CNS Tumor Test
Introduction
The Cancer Targeted Gene Panel CNS Tumor Test is a state-of-the-art diagnostic procedure that plays a crucial role in the early detection and management of central nervous system (CNS) tumors. This test utilizes advanced molecular techniques to analyze specific genetic mutations associated with various types of CNS tumors, providing valuable insights that can guide treatment decisions.
What the Test Measures
This test specifically measures the presence of several critical genetic mutations and alterations, including:
- 1p19q codeletion
- EGFR amplification
- IDH1, IHC
- Ki67
- ATRX
- TP53
- IDH1 & 2 mutation
- PTEN
- BRAF
Who Should Consider This Test
This test is recommended for individuals who exhibit symptoms of CNS tumors, such as persistent headaches, seizures, cognitive changes, or neurological deficits. Additionally, those with a family history of cancer or genetic predispositions may also benefit from this test.
Benefits of Taking the Test
- Provides critical information for personalized treatment plans.
- Helps in identifying the most effective therapies based on genetic profiles.
- Can lead to earlier diagnosis and improved outcomes.
- Guides oncologists in monitoring treatment effectiveness and disease progression.
