Gene detection is a method to detect the DNA molecular information in the tested cells by using biological gene technology, specific equipment and molecular biotechnology detection means, and then analyze whether the gene type, gene defect and expression function are normal.

The samples for genetic testing of tumor patients can be varied, including pathological tissue samples obtained after biopsy, blood and other body fluids such as pleural effusion, peritoneal effusion, pericardial effusion and even cerebrospinal fluid. Commonly used methods include tissue/cell biopsy and liquid biopsy.

Gene detection

Including the detection of gene expression products, gene amplification detection and gene mutation detection, it can determine whether there is a specific gene with tumor or canceration, so as to make a diagnosis.

Image inspection

(1) x-ray examination? Including fluoroscopy and plain film, such as some peripheral lung cancer and bone tumor, on which specific shadows may appear; Comparative examination, such as upper gastrointestinal radiography, may find esophageal cancer and gastric cancer. And barium enema can show colon cancer. Special X-ray photography, such as molybdenum target photography, is used to check breast cancer.

(2) Ultrasonic inspection? Simple and non-invasive, it is widely used in the examination of liver, gallbladder, pancreas, spleen, kidney, thyroid gland, breast and other parts, and can be used for ultrasound-guided tumor biopsy with high success rate.
