Understanding Your Genetic Health: PIK3CA Mutation Analysis
When facing cancer concerns or treatment decisions, having the right genetic information can make all the difference. We understand the uncertainty and anxiety that comes with genetic testing, which is why our PIK3CA Mutation Analysis is designed to provide you with clear, actionable insights in a supportive, compassionate environment.
What This Test Reveals About Your Health
The PIK3CA gene plays a crucial role in cell growth and division. When mutations occur in specific areas called Exon 7, 9 and 20, they can contribute to cancer development and affect how your body responds to certain treatments. Our analysis examines these key genetic markers to provide your healthcare team with valuable information that could guide your treatment journey.
