Summary
This is a Proprietary Laboratory Analyses (PLA) code, meaning that the code applies to only one unique lab test made by a specific manufacturer or performed by a specific lab. Report 0543U only for TruSight™ Oncology Comprehensive from Illumina Inc. This test analyzes DNA from tumor tissue to detect genetic changes in 517 genes that may be linked to cancer. The test identifies different types of mutations, including single– and multi–nucleotide variants and insertions and deletions using next–generation sequencing of DNA. The test also identifies gene fusions and splice variants from RNA. It also calculates the tumor mutation burden, which can help assess the tumor’s behavior and response to treatment.
