FGFR1 Gene Rearrangement FISH Test in Dubai | 700 AED | DHA Licensed
Executive Summary & Core Metrics
Executive Summary: The FGFR1 FISH test detects critical chromosomal rearrangements driving myeloid/lymphoid neoplasms (8p11 syndrome). Using a Zytolight® SPEC FGFR1 Break‑Apart Probe with CE‑IVD certification and digital imaging, this assay delivers 99.9% diagnostic sensitivity through ISO 9001:2015 accredited processing in Dubai. The test requires bone marrow aspiration performed at an accredited hospital facility. Results are available within 3–4 business days with post‑test telehealth guidance from our DHA‑licensed specialist. The all‑inclusive price is 700 AED.
Test Overview & Methodology
FGFR1 gene rearrangements are essential biomarkers for selecting tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy and monitoring disease progression in myeloid/lymphoid neoplasms. Our optimized FISH analysis employs a dual‑color break‑apart probe strategy on interphase nuclei from bone marrow aspirate. Digital image analysis ensures objective signal enumeration. The test is indicated for patients presenting with eosinophilia, splenomegaly, or suspected 8p11 myeloproliferative syndrome.

Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
“As a DHA‑licensed specialist in diagnostic radiology, I emphasize that FGFR1 FISH results must be interpreted within the full clinical, morphological, and molecular workup. This test is a powerful tool for guiding targeted therapy and monitoring 8p11 syndrome, but patient safety always requires integration with expert clinical judgment.”

Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. What does FGFR1 FISH testing detect and how does it guide my cancer treatment?
FGFR1 FISH identifies chromosomal rearrangements that drive myeloproliferative neoplasms, guiding tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy selection to improve outcomes. The test provides critical information for personalized oncology planning and disease monitoring.
2. Is the 700 AED price inclusive of all services and follow‑up support?
The 700 AED fee covers hospital‑based bone marrow aspiration, ISO‑certified cold‑chain transport, laboratory analysis with CE‑IVD probes, and a post‑test teleconsultation with a DHA‑licensed specialist to discuss your results.
3. How soon will I receive my FGFR1 FISH results and are they accepted for UAE medical clearance?
Results are delivered within 3–4 business days via secure email and are accepted by DHA for medical travel permits and treatment planning across UAE healthcare facilities.
