Panels that include this biomarker
HER-2/ neu FISH, Gastric, Paraffin 483340
2 analytes · Tumor (formalin-fixed · Fasting not stated · Turnaround 3 - 5 days
Labcorp catalog pageMethod and collection
- Method
- Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)
- Collection
- FFPE tissue, preserved in 10% neutral buffered formalin, fixed for 18 to 24 hours. Extended fixation time might increase the incubation time required for pepsin digestion. ASCO/CAP 2013 guidelines recommend fixation time between 6 and 72 hours for breast tissue; however, special ASCO/CAP guidelines have not been established for gastric cancer samples.
HER-2/CEP17 FISH, Breast With Reflex to Immunohistochemistry (IHC) if Group 2, 3, 4 by FISH 483333
2 analytes · Formalin-fixed · Fasting not stated · Turnaround 3 - 5 days
Labcorp catalog pageMethod and collection
- Method
- Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), Immunohistochemistry (IHC)
- Collection
- Specimen should be fixed in 10% neutral-buffered formalin. Time from tissue acquisition to fixation should be as short as possible. Fixation time should be between six and 72 hours according to ASCO/CAP guidelines.

Labcorp catalog pageMethod and collection
- Method
- Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)
- Collection
- Specimen should be fixed in 10% neutral-buffered formalin. Fixation time should be between 6 and 72 hours according to ASCO/CAP guidelines; however, the package insert indicates optimum fixation time between 18 and 24 hours.

We compile this page from named laboratory catalogs, guidelines and studies. Labs calculate reference intervals from the people they test, for one assay method and one population group, so an interval describes that population rather than an optimal target.
