About test
What does FISH FOR ANY ONE MICRODELETION SYNDROME WITH KARYOTYPING - (Outlab) measure?
This test combines karyotyping with fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) to examine chromosomes and look for a selected microdeletion syndrome. Karyotyping assesses chromosome number and larger structural changes, while FISH can detect a specific small missing chromosome segment targeted by the test. It may be used when a healthcare professional is evaluating developmental concerns, congenital differences, learning difficulties, or a family history suggestive of a chromosome-related condition.
