Understanding Your Results

Results indicate the presence or absence of genetic mutations in the tested genes, guiding cancer diagnosis and treatment.
📊

Mutation Detected

Presence of genetic alteration; may indicate cancer or guide targeted therapy.

📊

No Mutation Detected

Absence of tested mutations; further clinical evaluation may be needed.

📊

Variant of Unknown Significance

Genetic change with unclear clinical impact; consult a geneticist.

⚠️ When to Consult a Doctor:

Consult an oncologist or genetic counselor when mutations are detected for treatment planning or if results are unclear.

Limitations
