HPV HIGH RISK E LOW RISK

Why get tested?
Il test offre uno screening virologico completo per individuare sia le infezioni da ceppi ad alto rischio oncogeno, sia quelle sostenute da ceppi a basso/medio rischio responsabili di lesioni benigne (come i condilomi genitali) o alterazioni citologiche incerte.

What test see?
The test screens for a total of 32 HPV genotypes: 13 high-risk oncogenic types (16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, 68) and 19 low- to medium-risk types (6, 11, 26, 40, 42, 43, 44, 53, 54, 61, 62, 66, 67, 70, 73, 81, 82, 83, 89).


How is the test administered on?
The test is performed on a sample of cells collected from the cervix (as a ThinPrep® thin layer or on a traditional slide). The 32 genotypes are characterized using real-time PCR and reverse dot blot techniques.
