Test Overview & Methodology
The MDM2 Gene Amplification FISH test accurately detects copy number gains of the MDM2 oncogene in archival tumor tissue (FFPE blocks or slides), critical for diagnosing well-differentiated/dedifferentiated liposarcomas and guiding targeted therapy. Fluorescence In-Situ Hybridization on solid tissue provides gold-standard sensitivity and specificity.
| Feature | Our MDM2 FISH Test | Closest Alternative (NGS Panel) |
|---|---|---|
| Precision | Gold-standard FISH for amplification scoring; high sensitivity for low-level gains | NGS may miss certain copy number variations or require complex bioinformatics |
| Methodology | Fluorescence In-Situ Hybridization (FISH) on FFPE tissue | Next-Generation Sequencing with copy number analysis |
| Turnaround Time | 7โ8 working days | 10โ14 days depending on lab |
| Cost | 1200 AED | 1500โ2500 AED |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
"As a specialist in diagnostic radiology, I emphasize that MDM2 amplification status from FISH must be correlated with cross-sectional imaging and histopathological grading. This test is invaluable for confirming liposarcoma subtypes, but it should not be used as a standalone diagnostic tool. Always discuss results with your oncology team."
โ Mr. Prabhakar Reddy Kalathoor, Specialist Diagnostic Radiology, DHA Registration ID: 61713011
