Sarcoma Comprehensive NGS Fusion Panel
Also known as: NGS Comprehensive Sarcoma Fusion Profile
Use
The Sarcoma Comprehensive NGS Fusion Panel is an RNA-based sequencing test designed to detect translocations and fusions involving a variety of genes associated with sarcoma. It can identify known and novel fusion partners, aiding in the diagnosis and characterization of sarcomas, which may help guide appropriate treatment strategies.
Special Instructions
Not provided.
Limitations
While this panel can detect a wide range of translocations and fusions, limitations may exist regarding the detection of very low abundance RNA or fusion events not covered by the genes listed in the panel. The results are dependent on the quality of the RNA extracted and the completeness of the gene coverage offered by the panel.
