Epigenetic profiling is a powerful new method of molecular analysis, that improves the classification of tumors.
Perfect for classifying and analyzing benign and malignant sarcomas including metastatic disease
Ideal for categorizing pediatric tumors of all types
Improved accuracy and reliability of tumor classification using Bethesda classifier
Reports MGMT promoter methylation status and chromosome copy number, including 1p/19q co-deletion
Identifies key oncogene amplifications and key tumor suppressor deletions
Identifies new epigenetic subgroups of tumors
Protean’s epigenetic profiling report provides the information you need in a clear and easy to understand format.
