TEL/AML1 Quantitative Test: Cost, Symptoms, and Diagnosis
DNA Labs India offers a variety of genetic tests, including the TEL/AML1 Quantitative Test, which can help diagnose certain types of leukemia. In this blog post, we will discuss the cost of the TEL/AML1 Quantitative Test, its symptoms, and how it is diagnosed.
What is the TEL/AML1 Quantitative Test?
The TEL/AML1 Quantitative Test is a genetic test that looks for specific changes in a person’s DNA that are associated with a type of leukemia called TEL/AML1-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). This type of leukemia is most commonly found in children, but it can also affect adults.
The test uses a technique called quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) to measure the amount of TEL/AML1 fusion gene in a person’s blood or bone marrow. The TEL/AML1 fusion gene is created when two separate genes, TEL and AML1, fuse together. This fusion gene is not found in normal cells, but it is present in the leukemia cells of people with TEL/AML1-positive ALL.
What are the symptoms of TEL/AML1-positive ALL?
The symptoms of TEL/AML1-positive ALL are similar to those of other types of leukemia and can include:
- Fatigue
- Weakness
- Fever
- Weight loss
- Pale skin
- Joint pain
- Bone pain
- Swollen lymph nodes
- Easy bruising or bleeding
These symptoms can be caused by other conditions, so it is important to see a doctor if you are experiencing any of them.
How is TEL/AML1-positive ALL diagnosed?
TEL/AML1-positive ALL is diagnosed through a combination of physical exams, blood tests, and bone marrow tests. If a doctor suspects that a person has leukemia, they will usually order a complete blood count (CBC) and a blood smear.
If the CBC and blood smear show abnormal results, a bone marrow biopsy may be ordered. During a bone marrow biopsy, a small amount of bone marrow is removed from the hipbone using a needle. The bone marrow is then examined under a microscope to look for leukemia cells.
If leukemia cells are found, further tests may be done to determine the subtype of leukemia and the best course of treatment. This is where the TEL/AML1 Quantitative Test may come in.
How much does the TEL/AML1 Quantitative Test cost?
The cost of the TEL/AML1 Quantitative Test at DNA Labs India is INR 6000. This cost may vary at other labs or hospitals.
Conclusion
The TEL/AML1 Quantitative Test is a valuable tool for diagnosing TEL/AML1-positive ALL, a type of leukemia that is most commonly found in children. If you are experiencing symptoms of leukemia, it is important to see a doctor as soon as possible to get an accurate diagnosis and start treatment.
