What is included in the ImpriMed Immunoprofile service?

The ImpriMed Immunoprofile service includes both our Flow Cytometry and PARR reports. These comprehensive results can be used to detect the presence of lymphoma or leukemia and determine the disease subtype.

How do vets report back the outcomes to feed back into the AI model? Is this something that can be easily done via the Vet portal?

We usually send you an email asking for patient records about 3-6 months after you receive the final ImpriMed report. Once we receive the record, we input the data into the AI Models, it is not yet something that can be submitted on the Vet Portal.

How long does the media last before expiring? How long is the medium good for?

The media has a 3 month shelf life. You can check the tube and look for its expiration date as well.

If I send samples from multiple patients, do I get a discount?

No, but after the first Personalized Prediction Profile service for a given patient, all subsequent Personalized Prediction Profile services for that patient are discounted.

What is the simulated dosing for a certain drug? MTD(maximum tolerated dosing) or metronomic?

Our models don't differentiate between different types of dosing, so they can be viewed as outcomes for standard clinical practice. For instance, if MTD is more common in practice, the models may more closely reflect MTD.

What does PARR tell me about my patient’s specimen?

PARR, which stands for PCR for Antigen Receptor Rearrangements, is used to discriminate between lymphoma/leukemia and reactive/inflammatory conditions when cytology is equivocal. Our canine PARR assay detects the expansion of B-cell cancer clones by amplifying the VJ region of the immunoglobulin heavy chain gene (IgH) and detects the expansion of T-cell cancer clones by amplifying a region in the T-cell receptor gamma chain gene.
