LOINC display name : APC gene del dup and full mutation analysis Molgen Doc (Bld/Tiss);
LOINC long common name : APC gene deletion duplication and full mutation analysis in Blood or Tissue by Molecular
genetics method;
LOINC short name : APC gene Del Dup Full Mut Anl Bld/T;
LOINC description : Full gene sequence analysis is performed to detect the presence of a mutation in all
coding regions and intron/exon boundaries of the APC gene. In addition, deletion/duplication
analysis, such as by array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH), is used to test
for the presence of large deletions or duplications in the APC gene. This test is
used to confirm a diagnosis of familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) for patients with
clinical findings.;
