In hebrw it sound like "perkin point" or "parkin point" or anything sound like this. it is emagency. we need a contact with this laboratory as soon as possible in order for her to get the right diagnosis snd get the right treatment.

I am afraid I don't understand. Are you looking for the name of the laboratory?
Most special tissue labs are in large teaching hospitals. Hopkins, Mayo, MGH, etc. I'd call the doctor and get the specific name.
This is a Google search for New York..

The only "parkin" I can find in medical literature refers to a protein found in Parkinson's patients. (not cancer).
