I have a patient with likely lymphoma/leukemia. For a blood sample, can I just submit an EDTA blood tube or do I still use the ImpriMed tubes (and if so, how many tubes and is an additional EDTA blood tube still needed with that)?

If the patient is suspected of leukemia, blood collected in the EDTA tube should be fine. If it is lymphoma, we might need FNA from the affected organ/lymph node. We can suggest FNA in ImpriMed media tube (1) and 2ml of blood sample in an EDTA tube.

Does the ordering veterinarian have to be an oncologist?

No, any licensed veterinarian can order all ImpriMed's services.

Can the testing be performed on dogs that are currently on therapy?

Current therapy will not affect our AI predictions or immunoprofile results. However, reduction of tumor size caused by therapy may increase the likelihood of service failure due to insufficient cells. In the event of service failure, you will not be billed.

Is it wise to eliminate a certain chemotherapy drug based on the test results or should there be other factors that need to be considered in this decision?

We do not recommend using ImpriMed's predictions to rule out treatment options. The company's artificial intelligence is optimized to give high positive predictive value to help you find drugs with the highest likelihood of producing positive clinical outcomes. For the bests results, our predictions should be used in conjunction with expert knowledge from a skilled oncologist.
