Method Description
Describes how the test is performed and provides a method-specific reference
This request will be processed as a consultation and an interpretation will be provided in the context of the final pathology report.
Day(s) and Time(s) Test Performed
Outlines the days and times the test is performed. This field reflects the day and time the sample must be in the testing laboratory to begin the testing process and includes any specimen preparation and processing time required before the test is performed. Some tests are listed as continuously performed, which means assays are performed several times during the day.

One day means results are available 1 day after the sample is received in the laboratory.
