name | MSH2 gene deletion+duplication and full mutation analysis and EPCAM gene exons 8 and 9 deletion and duplication mutation analysis in Blood or Tissue by Molecular genetics method | ||
description | This test includes full sequencing analysis of the MSH2 gene as well as deletions and/or duplication analysis of one or more exons in the MSH2 gene and exons 8 and 9 in the EPCAM gene. Testing is performed for the diagnosis of Lynch syndrome (also known as hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC)) and for predictive diagnosis and potential early intervention for at risk family members. | ||
