Test Parameters & Specifications
Understanding Your Results
Mutation Detected
Indicates a genetic alteration in NRAS codons 12 or 13, which may be associated with cancer development and could affect treatment response.
Action: Consult with an oncologist or genetic counselor for further evaluation and personalized treatment planning.
No Mutation Detected
No mutations were found in the tested codons, but this does not rule out other genetic factors or cancer types.
Action: Discuss results with a healthcare provider to determine if additional testing is needed based on clinical context.
Consult a doctor if you have a family history of cancer, experience symptoms like unexplained weight loss or persistent pain, or if the test results indicate a mutation. Genetic counseling is recommended for interpreting results and assessing familial risks.
