Keep an Eye on Your Skin!
The most notorious variety of skin cancers are melanomas, making up 1%, but is by far the most dangerous. However, early intervention can make melanomas highly treatable. Precision is dedicated to getting patients fast, accurate results to improve the success of treatment. We offer BRAF and EGFR biomarker testing which highlights common melanoma gene mutations.
BRAF mutations are especially prevalent in melanomas; similarly, EGFR mutations are linked with thicker tumors and metastases. Identification of the mutation and the development of mutation-targeting therapies have drastically improved the treatment of melanomas.
