What are the sample requirements for EarlyCDT–Lung?
The test requires a blood draw of 10 mL. There are no special requirements such as fasting necessary prior to your blood draw. The healthcare professional performing the draw will then use a centrifuge to spin down the blood sample and submit at least 5 mL (about one teaspoon) of serum to Oncimmune for testing. . Blood should be collected into a red–top vacutainer tube (no SST tubes!). An instruction sheet for sample collection and handling is included in every Oncimmune collection kit. If there are additional questions regarding the sample collection process, please call Oncimmune Client Services at 1–888–583–9030.
