Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH)
Discover genetic insights with fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)
Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) identifies targeted regions on chromosomes using specific fluorescent tagged DNA probes thus enabling detection of various numerical and structural chromosomal aberrations.
This analysis helps in rapid identification of chromosomal aneuploidies like trisomies 13, 18 and 21, microdeletion syndromes like DiGeorge syndrome (22q microdeletion) and other chromosomal rearrangements like translocations.
