Frequently Asked Questions

IDH1/2 mutation analysis
IDH1 & IDH2 mutations are found in acute myeloid leukemia and gliomas. Identification of IDH mutations can aid in the diagnosis, provide prognostic information, and suggest treatment with IDH inhibitors
The patient should carry the FFPE tissue or block of the Brain Tumor. This process is carried out by Neuro Surgeon in the hospital
The IDH gene mutations are recommended for diagnosis of malignant gliomas and also found in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML).
The test is performed by NGS technique
There is no risk associated with the test as biopsy will be taken by the trained Neuro surgeon in the hospital under anasthesia
The test result indicates IDH positive or Negative Tumor. IDH2 mutations have been associated with improved prognosis in gliomas.
