HPV Typing (Sequencing)

The HPV Typing By Sequencing test identifies specific types of human papillomavirus (HPV) through DNA sequencing. It helps identify high-risk strains that may cause cervical and other cancers. The test is useful for determining the risk of cervical cancer and for appropriate follow-up care.

Frequently Asked Questions

This molecular test identifies the genotype of human papillomavirus (HPV) by analyzing DNA sequences of the virus.

It helps detect and classify high-risk HPV strains associated with cervical cancer and other anogenital malignancies.

DNA is extracted from a cervical or lesion sample and sequenced to determine the specific HPV genotype present.

Detection of high-risk HPV genotypes, such as HPV-16 or HPV-18, indicates increased risk of cervical dysplasia or cancer.

Avoid vaginal medications or douching 24 hours before sample collection. Inform your doctor of menstrual status.
