What does this test EGFR Mutation Detection Test By RTPCR identify?

EGFR Mutation Detection Test By RTPCR

This test is used to identify mutations in the EGFR gene through the Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RTPCR) technique. The EGFR gene encodes a protein that is involved in cell growth and division. Mutations in this gene can lead to uncontrolled cell growth and are commonly found in certain types of cancer, particularly non-small cell lung cancer.

The EGFR Mutation Detection Test By RTPCR specifically looks for mutations in specific regions of the EGFR gene that are known to be associated with cancer. Identifying these mutations can help determine the most effective treatment options for patients with EGFR-mutated cancers.
