Smart Cytogenetics 2: Karyotyping and FISH for Two Markers

Smart Cytogenetics 2 is an advanced diagnostic test that combines Karyotyping and Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH) for two markers. It is performed to analyze and assess the chromosomes in a sample of blood cells. This test is crucial in the identification and management of genetic disorders and certain types of cancers. Karyotyping is a technique where chromosomes are stained and viewed under a microscope to evaluate their number and structure. FISH involves the use of fluorescent probes that bind to specific DNA sequences on the chromosomes, enabling the identification of genetic abnormalities with high precision.

  • Test NameSmart Cytogenetics 2: Karyotyping and FISH for Two Markers
  • Sample TypeBlood/ bone marrow
  • Preparations RequiredNo special preparation is needed for this test.
  • Report Time12 Days for Karyotype & 5 Days for FISH

Adding to its counterpart Smart Cytogenetics 1, this test includes an additional marker in FISH, allowing for an even more detailed analysis. Such detailed information is valuable, especially in the context of complex genetic diseases and cancers, where multiple genetic alterations may be involved.
