Frequently Asked Questions
What does this test measure?
This test measures the presence of mutations in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes, which are critical for understanding an individual's risk of developing breast and ovarian cancer. By detecting copy number variations (CNV), healthcare providers can better assess genetic risk.
Who should take this test?
Individuals with a family history of breast or ovarian cancer, or those who have been diagnosed with related cancers at a young age, should consider this test. It is also recommended for those with known BRCA mutations in their family.
How do I prepare for this test?
Preparation for this test involves providing a blood sample of 4 mL (3 mL min.) in a Lavender top (EDTA) tube. It is important to ensure that a complete clinical history is available, along with a genomic test request form and informed consent.
What do the results mean?
Results from this test indicate whether BRCA mutations are present. Positive results may suggest an increased risk for breast and ovarian cancers, while negative results can provide reassurance regarding these specific genetic risks.
How long until I get my results?
The turnaround time for this test is typically 15 to 20 days. Results will be communicated through the designated delivery method as specified during the testing process.
