FISH [also called fluorescence in situ hybridization]

This is a lab test that measures the amount of a certain gene in cells. It can be used to see if an invasive cancer has too many HER2 (HER TOO) genes. A cancer with too many of these genes is called HER2-positive. If a cancer is HER2-positive, it may respond to Herceptin. (her-SEP-tin) This is a drug that can slow down or stop the growth of cancer with too many HER2 genes.
