Mi Molecular Intelligence Tumor Seek Test
Introduction
The Mi Molecular Intelligence Tumor Seek Test is a state-of-the-art diagnostic tool that utilizes next-generation sequencing (NGS) to analyze tumor samples at a molecular level. This test is crucial for oncologists seeking to understand the genetic makeup of tumors, which can inform treatment decisions and improve patient outcomes. By providing detailed insights into tumor characteristics, this test plays a vital role in personalized medicine, allowing for tailored treatment strategies.
What the Test Measures
This comprehensive test measures several key components:
- Whole Exome (NGS DNA): Analyzes the coding regions of the genome to identify mutations.
- MSI (Microsatellite Instability): Assesses the stability of microsatellite regions, which can indicate certain types of cancer.
- TMB (Tumor Mutational Burden): Evaluates the total number of mutations within the tumor, providing insights into the tumor’s behavior.
- Whole Transcriptome (NGS RNA): Examines gene expression profiles to understand tumor biology.
Who Should Consider This Test
The Mi Molecular Intelligence Tumor Seek Test is recommended for patients with:
- Diagnosed cancers where detailed genetic information is needed for treatment planning.
- Symptoms indicative of advanced disease or treatment resistance.
- A family history of cancer or genetic predisposition to certain cancer types.
Benefits of Taking the Test
Patients can benefit from this test in several ways:
- Informed treatment decisions based on the unique genetic profile of the tumor.
- Identification of potential targeted therapies that may be more effective.
- Improved understanding of prognosis and disease management.
- Access to clinical trials that may be available for specific mutations.
