What is the BrushTest?

The BrushTest is a service more than just a single product. It consists of 3 main components:

2. Analysis
Once collected, the sample is sent to OralCDx Laboratories, a specialized laboratory, where specially-trained pathologists use highly sophisticated computers to analyze the specimen to help detect abnormal cells.

3. Results & Follow-Up
Once completed, the pathologists will issue a report that is faxed to the doctor. Our Clinical Support Team works is available to discuss specific cases with the doctos to help with possible next steps.

Why should you use a BrushTest?

Most people will have a small oral spot like this at one time or another and they can be seen in up to 10% of carefully examined adults.
