When setting up and validating a new testing for the lab, several factors must be taken into consideration. Some of which are time management of the pathologists and the technologists. But the greatest considerations are the quality and ease of reading the test and making a correct diagnosis for the patient. When comparing RNA technology against DNA technology, the advantages and disadvantages of both technologies must be evaluated. Which test will produce the highest quality of staining and be able to be render the most optimal diagnosis? What are the advantages of RNA probes and RNAscope™ technology over DNA probes and DNA technology? Which test is most optimal for correct treatment of tumors of the Head and Neck? This lecture will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of both technologies.
