Testing strategy

Help

Microarray analysis reported within 2-4 business days if specimen is adequate. If not adequate, client will be contacted and plan established. After identification of a copy number gain or loss, FISH confirmation/visualization is attempted for majority of findings if specimen is adequate. If parental specimens are submitted with prenatal specimen, they are stabilized and available for follow-up testing after FISH is completed on prenatal sample. 000 For specimen requirements and handling instructions please visit: https://www.allelediagnostics.com/ordering/sample-requirements/.
