A product of Pathwork Diagnostics, The Pathwork® Tissue of Origin Test is designed to increase diagnostic certainty for hard-to-identify tumors.
The Pathwork® Tissue of Origin Test measures the expression of more than 1500 genes present in a tissue sample and generates the tumor’s gene expression profile. This profile is then compared to those of 15 known tissues, representing more than 60 morphologies. An objective, probability-based Similarity Score is provided for each of the 15 potential tissue types, enabling each tissue type to be ruled in or ruled out.
