You will need to read the consent form, sign it, and send it back to Kristin Astrom . Please feel free to contact Kristin with any questions that you may have regarding the consent form. If you are going to have clinical testing, you need to see a genetic counselor in your area to talk about the genetic test. If your counselor wishes, Kristin or the laboratory staff are happy to discuss the genetic testing process so it can be fully explained to you. The results will be sent to the genetic counselor, and he or she will give you the results.
Results are usually available in four to six weeks.
You will not get any personal results from this research, but we will keep you informed on the progress in developing new knowledge about these tumors via a newsletter.
