Description



Community-based rapid NGS
offers considerable advantages
in clinical cancer care


Why should you register now for this webinar?
Hear about William Osler Health System’s experience with implementing next-generation sequencing (NGS) in routine oncology biomarker testing.

In their pilot study, 578 pan-cancer solid tumor samples underwent genomic profiling.
All testing was performed by one group of technologists within the same division of the laboratory, achieving a median turnaround time (TAT) of 3 business days.
