This includes molecular oncology testing, molecular genetics testing and molecular pathogen testing. The current menu of diagnostic tests is listed at this web site, and also lists those tests under development. We welcome suggestions for additional tests that are of benefit to clinicians at UCI and in the greater Orange County area. The lab is also involved in the training of Pathology residents, as well as medical students and residents in other disciplines. Towards this end we welcome collaborations from investigators in need of molecular testing, including tests not currently on our menu.
Laboratory utilizes nucleic acids-based technologies in the diagnosis of human disease.
The DMP lab is a separate laboratory unit charged with implementing tests for genetic, oncologic and infectious diseases. This provides a comprehensive approach to both the diagnosis and treatment of disease. In most cases, comprehensive interpretations are provided with each diagnosis. The DMP lab is physically located in the Hitachi building on the College of Medicine campus in Irvine. This information is given on the TDS or the appropriate Molecular Pathology requisition form.
