Precision Onco Haemyeloid NGS Panel

Precision Onco Haemyeloid NGS Panel

The Precision Onco Haemyeloid NGS Panel uses next-generation sequencing to identify the specific genetic mutations driving a patient's blood cancer, information that increasingly shapes treatment choice. Blood cancers such as leukaemia and myelodysplastic syndromes often behave differently depending on their underlying mutations, even when they look similar under a microscope. At UMC Victoria Hospital, our Department of Cancer offers this precision onco haemyeloid NGS panel testing in Uganda as part of a precision-guided approach to haematological cancers:

  • Sample collection
    blood or bone marrow sample sent for sequencing
  • Mutation profiling
    detection of genetic changes linked to specific blood cancers
  • Treatment matching
    identifying targeted therapies suited to the mutation profile
  • Prognostic insight
    some mutations inform likely disease course
  • Specialist interpretation
    results reviewed alongside clinical findings by our oncology team

This panel is typically recommended for patients newly diagnosed with a blood cancer or those whose disease isn't responding as expected. Consult our team for further medical assistance.
