Alk-1 Mutation-FISH in Patan

The Alk-1 Mutation-FISH (Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization) test in Patan is a targeted genetic test used to detect specific mutations in the anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) gene and can drive the development of certain cancers, making it a target for personalised treatments. This test uses fluorescent probes to visualise and map the genetic material in an individual's cells, explicitly looking for abnormalities associated with the ALK gene.

Why It’s Performed:

  • Suspected cases of cancer with an ALK gene rearrangement.
  • To guide targeted therapy decisions, such as the use of ALK inhibitors.
  • To monitor ALK gene status in response to treatment or disease progression.

For the ALK-1 Mutation-FISH test in Patan, the methodology involves obtaining a sample through a tissue biopsy, as it is necessary to examine the cells directly for genetic changes. The FISH technique, which stands for Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization, is then applied; this involves using fluorescently labelled DNA probes that specifically attach to the ALK gene sequences within the tissue cells. Under a fluorescence microscope, these probes light up, indicating the presence or absence of ALK gene mutations or rearrangements, which is crucial for diagnosing and guiding treatment decisions.

Key Details

  • Preparation: No specific preparation is required for the patient before the test.
  • Prescription: Must be referred by a physician, usually an oncologist or a pulmonologist.
  • Sample Required: Tissue biopsy from the affected area, not a blood sample. The healthcare provider will guide the procedure.
  • Turnaround Time: Results are generally available within 7-10 days

For further details and to schedule an Alk-1 Mutation-FISH (Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization) test in Patan, patients and healthcare providers can contact Sterling Accuris Diagnostics.
