STI Panel PCR Testing
Comprehensive molecular STI detection with the accuracy of PCR and the speed of in-office testing.
Sexually transmitted infections require confident diagnosis and timely treatment. Our STI Panel uses PCR-based molecular testing to detect common STI pathogens with precision—delivering results the same day, not days later.
Accurate STI Diagnosis Matters
Sexually transmitted infections are common, treatable, and too often missed or delayed in diagnosis. Traditional testing methods can mean sending specimens to outside labs, waiting days for results, and requiring patient callbacks to initiate treatment.
That delay has consequences. Continued transmission. Patient anxiety. Lost follow-up when patients don't return for results. Treatment initiation that happens days after it should.
PCR-based molecular testing changes this dynamic. Highly accurate pathogen detection, delivered in your office, with results that enable same-day clinical decisions. Diagnose with confidence. Treat promptly. Reduce transmission.
How the STI Panel Works
The STI Panel uses polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology to detect pathogen DNA directly from patient specimens. Unlike culture-based methods or less sensitive tests, PCR provides molecular-level precision for accurate pathogen identification.
Specimen collection follows standard protocols for STI testing. Specimens are processed through your PCR system, with results available the same day. Clear pathogen identification supports confident diagnosis and appropriate treatment selection.
The result is STI testing that fits your practice workflow—accurate, efficient, and designed for in-office use.
Key Benefits
-
Molecular Precision
PCR-based detection provides highly accurate pathogen identification. Confident diagnosis, appropriate treatment.
-
Same-Day Results
Results the same day enable timely treatment decisions. No waiting days for outside lab results.
-
Comprehensive Panel
Tests for common STI pathogens in a single panel. Broad coverage from one specimen.
-
Reduce Send-Outs
Keep STI testing in your practice instead of relying on reference laboratories. Better turnaround, better patient experience.
-
Enable Prompt Treatment
Faster diagnosis means faster treatment initiation. Better patient outcomes, reduced transmission risk.
-
Support Sensitive Conversations
Having results the same day supports the clinical conversation—patients get answers and a treatment plan without a second appointment.
