Quest Diagnostics is an innovation leader.
- We recently developed Leumeta, a blood-based test for leukemia and lymphoma that can replace painful bone marrow biopsies.
- We offer a test to assist physicians in locating cancers of unknown primary origin, which is especially important for patients with cancers that have metastasized.
- Our InSure colorectal cancer-screening test is more patient friendly and easy to use, making it more likely to be completed.

Every Quest Diagnostics technician is specially trained to make testing as efficient and pain-free as possible, especially when dealing with children.
Quest Diagnostics meets and often exceeds the privacy and security requirements of HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) and strictly limits access to confidential patient information.
Quest Diagnostics performs most routine testing overnight and delivers the results to your doctor the next morning.
