Cytology and Women’s Health Panels

Cytology is the microscopic evaluation of cells that are spontaneously exfoliated or physically removed from human tissues. Cervicovaginal cytology (Pap smear) has a role in the detection of premalignant changes or early cancer of the uterine cervix. censonRX Labs has the capability to process liquid-based Paps via Hologic’s ThinPrep®. Should abnormalities arise, the slide is manually reviewed by a cytopathologist, who focuses his/her interpretive skills on microscopic examination of the cells.

Cystic Fibrosis Screening

• Cystic Fibrosis is the most common genetic disease in the United States.
• Our panel has the most comprehensive mutation coverage. Multiplex genotyping – no reflex testing necessary.
• Our test exceeds the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) and the American College of Medical Genetics (ACMG) recommendations for Cystic Fibrosis screening.
• The test is administered by a buccal swab of the mouth – no blood draw required.
• Second generation IVD assay with 100% overall accuracy and >99% precision.
• Our laboratory results are available 3-5 days following receipt of the sample.

Thrombophilia Screening

• Thrombophilia is a condition where the blood has an increased tendency to form clots.
• Our test assesses the risk of clinical complications associated with thrombophilia in women during pregnancy.
• Assesses the effectiveness of prophylactic treatments in preventing venous thromboembolism (VTE) and adverse pregnancy outcomes in women with thrombophilia during pregnancy.
• Our Thrombophilia panel tests for:
  • Factor V Leiden (F5)
  • Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase (MTHFR)
