Understanding Your Results
Positive for EZH2 mutation
Indicates a genetic alteration associated with leukemia. Consult a geneticist or oncologist for further evaluation.
Negative for EZH2 mutation
No mutations detected in the EZH2 gene. However, clinical correlation is necessary.
If you have symptoms of leukemia or a family history of genetic disorders, consult a doctor for evaluation and possible testing.
