Molecular and genomic testing examines the specific genetic changes present in a tumor, which can reveal information that standard pathology alone does not. It is ordered when the results could realistically change your treatment plan, and it is usually performed on tissue already collected during a biopsy or surgery, so an additional procedure is often not needed.
