Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Operating Segment and Geographic Information
OPERATING SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION
Transgenomic’s chief operating decision-maker is the Chief Executive Officer, who regularly evaluates our performance based on net sales and gross profit. The preparation of this segment analysis requires management to make estimates and assumptions around expenses below the gross profit level. While we believe the segment information to be materially correct, actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions used in preparing this information.
We have two reportable operating segments, Laboratory Services and Genetic Assays and Platforms. These lines of business are complementary with the Biomarker Identification labs driving innovation and leading to kit production in our Genetic Assays and Platforms segment and new tests in our Patient Testing labs.
The accounting policies of the segments are the same as the policies discussed in Footnote 2 – “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”.
 
Segment information for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 is as follows:
