If the blood clots can the ImpriMed test still be run?

Blood clots can prevent our ability to run our tests. Very small clots may not be a problem, but in general, clotted blood is not ideal. That is why we ask that doctors send blood in an EDTA or heparin tube.

Does the ordering veterinarian have to be an oncologist?

No, any licensed veterinarian can order all ImpriMed's services.

What does the ImpriMed Personalized Prediction Profile include?

The Personalized Prediction Profile includes our Immunoprofile report and anticancer drug response predictions generated by artificial intelligence models. The predictions include estimates of both (1) the likelihood of a positive clinical response (partial response/ complete remission) to individual anticancer drugs and (2) the likelihood complete remission after 1 or 2 cycles of CHOP therapy, and the likelihood of early relapse after a successful CHOP regimen. Outcome predictions are currently provided for 13 individual drugs that are commonly used in many first-line and rescue protocols for the treatment of canine lymphoma (including CHOP, LOPP, MOPP, LPP, Tavonea only, etc…). Predictions are included for Doxorubicin, Cyclophosphamide, Vincristine, Vinblastine, Prednisone, Rabacfosadine (Tanovea®), L-Asparaginase, Lomustine, Mitoxantrone, Mechlorethamine, Dexamethasone, Chlorambucil, and Melphalan.

How much blood is required for Personalized Prediction Profile for Canine Lymphoma?

We require at least 2mL of whole blood sample in an EDTA-treated tube.

What temperature do the media tubes need to be stored at?

Our proprietary media tubes must be stored in the fridge (36-40° F) before use. Please DO NOT freeze the media tubes.
