New Technology in Diagnostics

FISH TECHNOLOGY
Fluorescence in situ hybridization. this technology is worked on H E R -2 genes by providing fluorescence , enabling pathologist to see and count the number in each cell.
one live example of DONNA HENAGIN was a strong, physically active young woman when she was diagnosed with breast cancer in April 2001.Surgery followed , including the removal of 37 lymph nodes. It was diagnosed with the help of the test called as

PATH VYSION , a gene based test developed by Abbott molecular ,confirmed that DONNA was amoung the estimated one in four breast cancer patients whose HER-2 gene was malfuntioning ,creating additional copies of it self.Abnormally high quantities of HER -2 gene associated with rapid tumor growth , resistance to therapy , and shorter the disease free periods and over all survival.
PATH VYSION tests based on FISH technology .Path vysion is approved for diagnosis,prognosis and clinical out comes
