Bladder Tumor Analytes

Test Code
T520
Results:
1-2 days.
Specimen
2.0 mL urine in urine transport tube.
Test Description
This test may be used as an adjunct in the diagnosis of transitional cell carcinomas (TCC). The test is a reasonably sensitive (~90%) but not a specific test for TCC. Consider CADET™ BRAF (T1025).

Interferences: False‑positive results may occur in the presence of proteinuria, aciduria, urinary tract infection, and hematuria. An alternative test to consider is the CADET™ BRAF if looking for a non‑invasive diagnostic test with a far higher sensitivity (95%) and specificity (99%).
