DNA Diagnostics in Pathology

Molecular pathology is a modern branch of classical pathology. Even today, the evaluation of a tissue change under the microscope is an indispensable method of diagnosis. In support of this, more and more molecular methods are being introduced into the diagnostic spectrum of pathology. This makes it possible not only to establish a diagnosis as reliably as possible, but also to make targeted treatment recommendations and progress assessments.

Molecular pathology at amedes genetics offers the most modern, but also the most valid diagnostics from the perspective of pathology.

Molecular pathological methods

Thyroid carcinoma

e.g. therapy with vemurafenib or risk prediction

  • BRAF
  • NRAS
  • KRAS

Colon carcinoma/HNPCC

e.g. therapy with anti-EGFR

  • KRAS
  • NRAS
  • MSI
  • HNPCC (MLH1, PMS2, MSH2, MSH6, Mutationssuche; EDTA-Blut)

Lung carcinoma

e.g. therapy with thyrosine kinase inhibitors

  • EGFR

Melanoma

e.g. therapy with vemurafenib, trametinib

  • BRAF

In situ hybridization/FisH

  • ROS1
