Molecualar Cytogenetics is now an integral diagnostic and prognostic tool in various branches of medicine (e.g. oncology, pediatrics, cardiology, neurology, and internal medicine). The number of syndromes identified as associated with chromosome abnormalities has increased from less than a dozen in the 1960's to over 400 today. More recently, cancer cytogenetics has provided valuable diagnostic and prognostic information. The molecular cytogenetics laboratory at Yale University School of Medicine has been updated and staffed and now offers a full range of services for clinicians and researchers from Yale and beyond.
Our services include routine and specialized chromosome diagnostics, advanced molecular clinical services, and collaborative research services. Types of specimens processed include blood, amniotic fluids, chorionic villus, products of conception, bone marrow, skin, solid tumors, and many others. The laboratory also performs growth of cell lines for testing and research, fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH), array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH), and other cytogenetic and molecular techniques. Our laboratory provides fast turn-around time and competitive prices (please contact us for details or pricing, TAT, and availability of other tests).
