How long can the media tubes be outside of that temperature before going bad?

We will send you another batch of media tubes you could use. Please make the supply request on the Vet Portal > Request Supplies page.

Is there a way to cancel the order before it is processed if the patient decides they no longer want the ImpriMed test?

In order to cancel the order, please contact us by sending an email to support@imprimedicine.com.

For patients who already have flow cytometry, can you just run the drug sensitivity profile?

No, we cannot run a drug sensitivity-only service. Please understand our AI-based drug response prediction models require flow cytometry and PARR parameters generated from our own instrumental setting. Even if the patient already has flow cytometry results from another laboratory, we need to run flow and PARR again anyway.

How does ImpriMed predict drug responses?

Our predictions are made by artificial intelligence (AI) models trained to predict clinical outcomes from patient data inputs. Clinical outcomes collected from oncologists include reports of progressive disease, stable disease, partial response, and complete response. Patient data used as inputs by the AI models include readings from our live-cell drug sensitivity assay, flow cytometry, PARR, and patient information.Models are re-trained periodically to incorporate new data and refine performance.

Can the blood sample be frozen or refrigerated before shipping?
