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 0313U only for PancreaSeq® Genomic Classifier from University of Pittsburgh Medical Center Molecular and Genomic Pathology Laboratory. Using fluid from a pancreatic cyst identified by imaging, the test uses next–generation sequencing (NGS) analysis of 74 genes and gene [removed]RNA) analysis of a gene known as carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) or carcinoembryonic antigen–related cell adhesion molecule 5 (CEACAM5), which is a biomarker for gastrointestinal cancers. Using an algorithmic analysis of the results, the test provides a probability score of negative (low probability) or positive (high probability) that the cyst harbors genetic changes that could lead to cancer.
