Description
The PMS2 test, also known as the PMS2 gene mutation test, is a genetic test that looks for mutations or changes in the PMS2 gene. Mutations in the PMS2 gene can increase the risk of certain types of cancer, particularly colorectal cancer and endometrial cancer. The test involves analyzing a sample of blood or tissue to identify any mutations in the PMS2 gene. It can help determine an individual's risk of developing cancer and inform decisions about screening and preventive measures.
