- Routine Cytogenetic study
-
This is the most commonly requested cytogenetic study. Most of
the chromosomal abnormalities are detected or suspected through
routine karyotype. Other special cytogenetic studies (if needed) may be done using
the same sample...
- High resolution cytogenetic study
-
This study is usually requested for the diagnosis of cases with micro-chromosomal
abnormalities or to verify the nature and extent of abnormalities
that are not clear on routine karyotype ...
- Chromosome Breakage study
-
Through this study, chromosomes are challenged to detect
abnormal chromosome fragility of Fragile site. Selection of the
technique to induce fragility is dependant on the provisional clinical
diagnosis...
- Cancer cytogenetic study
-
Cancer cytogenetic study is the sole independent
prognostic factor in leukemia and it is an important parameter that
has to be considered in evaluation of the diagnosis and prognosis of
most hematological malignancies and many of the solid tumors ...
- Fluorescent In Situ Hybridization
studies (FISH)
-
This techniques are sometimes called molecular cytogenetic as
we use probes to detect submicroscopic chromosome aberrations.
It is a powerful tool to detect micro-chromosomal rearrangements.
