Take Control of Your Lung Health with Advanced Genetic Testing
When facing lung cancer concerns, uncertainty can feel overwhelming. Our Lung Cancer Panel 2 EGFR ALK1 ROS1 testing provides the clarity and direction you need to make informed treatment decisions. This comprehensive genetic analysis helps identify specific mutations that could respond better to targeted therapies, potentially transforming your treatment journey.
Understanding Your Lung Cancer Genetic Profile
This advanced test examines three crucial genetic markers in your lung cancer cells: EGFR, ALK1, and ROS1. These mutations play a significant role in how your cancer grows and responds to treatment. By identifying which mutations are present, your oncologist can recommend targeted therapies that may be more effective than standard chemotherapy, potentially leading to better outcomes with fewer side effects.
Using sophisticated FISH and Sanger Sequencing methods, our laboratory analyses paraffin-embedded tumour tissue blocks to provide highly accurate results you can trust.

This test is particularly important if you:
- Have been diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer
- Are experiencing persistent cough, chest pain, or breathing difficulties
- Have a family history of lung cancer
- Are a current or former smoker with ongoing health concerns
- Want to explore targeted therapy options beyond standard treatment
- Need clarity on which treatments might work best for your specific cancer type
