About test
What does LOW-GRADE MOSAICISM DETECTION BY FISH ON BUCCAL CELLS - (Outlab) measure?
This test uses fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) on buccal (cheek) cells to look for low-level mosaicism, where a small proportion of cells may have a different chromosome pattern from others. It may be used when a healthcare professional wants to evaluate possible chromosomal mosaicism that may not be detected by routine testing. Results are interpreted alongside clinical findings and other genetic test results.
