Test ID: HCRC
Hereditary Colon Cancer Multi-Gene Panel, Varies
Useful For 
Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Providing a comprehensive evaluation for hereditary colon cancer in patients with a personal or family history suggestive of a hereditary colon cancer syndrome
Serving as a second-tier test for patients in whom previous targeted gene variant analyses for specific hereditary colorectal cancer-related genes were negative
Establishing a diagnosis of a hereditary colon cancer syndrome in some cases, allowing for targeted cancer surveillance of associated extra-colonic organs known to be at increased risk for cancer
Identifying variants within genes known to be associated with increased risk for colon cancer allowing for predictive testing of at-risk family members
Genetics Test Information Provides information that may help with selection of the correct genetic test or proper submission of the test request
This test includes next-generation sequencing, Sanger sequencing, array comparative genomic hybridization, and multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification to evaluate for the genes listed on the panel.
