Test Details
Methodology
SNP Microarray analysis is performed using the Oncoscan® FFPE platform, which uses more than 220,000 SNP probes with a median spacing of 5.0 kb, within the majority of genes.
Result Turnaround Time
12 - 15 days
Turnaround time is defined as the usual number of days from the date of pickup of a specimen for testing to when the result is released to the ordering provider. In some cases, additional time should be allowed for additional confirmatory or additional reflex tests. Testing schedules may vary.
Use
This test will detect chromosomal imbalance that may be present in neoplastic disorders and clonal evolution. It provides detection of copy-neutral loss of heterozygosity of any chromosome, and the percent and location of homozygosity, that may be associated with cancer gene mutations.
Special Instructions
Pertinent medical findings should accompany the test request form. If prior FISH analysis has been performed, include copy of report. Please direct questions to genetic customer service at 800-345-4363.
This assay currently is not available in New York state.
Limitations
This SNP assay does not detect balanced rearrangements, low-level mosaicism (<10%), marker chromosomes that only contain heterochromatin or tetraploidy. Genotypes in some formalin-fixed tissues are unable to be determined, allowing only genomic dosage to be determined.
This test was developed and its performance characteristics determined by LabCorp. It has not been cleared or approved by the Food and Drug Administration.
