Comments:

Targeted mutation detention by next generation sequencing in Thyroid (FNA) and tissue samples, Thyroseq next generation sequencing panel offers simultaneous sequencing and detention in >1000 hotspots of 14 thyroid cancer-related genes and for 42 types of gene fusions known to occur in thyroid cancer.

Thyroid Genomic Classifier is a test for the pre-operative assessment of thyroid nodules with indeterminate cytology, which offers accurate assessment of cancer probability in a given nodule and additionally provides information on cancer prognostication, helping to select the most optimal patient management.

Thyroid Genomic Classifier incorporates all major scientific advances in thyroid cancer genetics and has more than 10-years' experience serving physicians and their patients with thyroid nodules and cancer.

Methodology:

Next Generation, semiconductor-based sequencing
