Cancer Targeted Gene Panel CNS Tumor Test
Comprehensive Genetic Analysis for Central Nervous System Tumors
The Cancer Targeted Gene Panel CNS Tumor Test represents a cutting-edge approach to brain tumor diagnosis and management. This sophisticated genetic analysis provides comprehensive insights into the molecular characteristics of central nervous system tumors, enabling more precise treatment decisions and personalized care strategies for patients facing brain cancer diagnoses.
What This Advanced Test Measures and Detects
Our comprehensive panel utilizes multiple advanced technologies including Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), and Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH) to analyze critical genetic markers:
- 1p19q Codeletion: Critical for oligodendroglioma classification and treatment response prediction
- EGFR Amplification: Identifies aggressive tumor subtypes and potential targeted therapy options
- IDH1 & IDH2 Mutations: Essential for glioma classification and prognosis assessment
- TP53 Mutations: Detects tumor suppressor gene alterations affecting treatment response
- ATRX Loss: Important for astrocytoma diagnosis and molecular subtyping
- PTEN Alterations: Identifies signaling pathway disruptions in various CNS tumors
- BRAF Mutations: Detects targetable mutations for precision therapy approaches
- Ki67 Proliferation Index: Measures tumor growth potential and aggressiveness
Who Should Consider This Comprehensive Genetic Testing
This advanced genetic panel is particularly valuable for individuals experiencing:
- Newly diagnosed brain tumors requiring molecular classification
- Recurrent CNS tumors needing updated genetic profiling
- Unexplained neurological symptoms suggesting possible CNS malignancy
- Family history of brain tumors or genetic cancer syndromes
- Treatment-resistant CNS tumors requiring alternative therapeutic options
- Patients seeking second opinions on brain tumor diagnoses
- Individuals with ambiguous initial pathology results
Significant Benefits of Comprehensive CNS Tumor Genetic Testing
Undergoing this comprehensive genetic analysis provides multiple advantages for patients and healthcare providers:
- Precise Tumor Classification: Enables accurate molecular subtyping beyond traditional histology
