Test Methodologies
Applied Diagnostics’ tests and methodologies include:
- Flow Cytometry, which uses laser-beam technology to analyze and characterize cells. Flow Cytometry is used in the diagnosis and evaluation of prognosis of cancers. It is particularly useful in the diagnosis and prognosis of lymphomas and leukemias.
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC), the basic tool of molecular pathology. IHC is a type of assay in which specific cellular antigens are detected by the use of labeled antibodies.
- Chromogenic In Situ Hybridization (CISH), an emerging technology for the detection of gene or chromosome changes using DNA probes requiring only light microscopy. Technology similar to FISH, employing chromogenic detection instead of fluorescent probes.
- Quantitative Image Analysis Circulating Tumor Cell (CTC) Assay, to aid in the management of cancer patients during therapy. Detection of circulating tumor cells allows physicians to evaluate disease progression and treatment response in patients with metastatic breast, colorectal, and prostate cancers.
- Circulating Tumor Cells (CTC), to monitor patient clinical status at any time during chemotherapy. CTC is critical in tumor monitoring, for evaluation of progression and response to chemotherapy of metastatic breast, colorectal, and prostate cancers.
