Clinical validity

Help

The methodology used allows the detection of CNVs larger than 50Kb. in regions clinically significant there is a higher density of probes (ClinGen/OMIN), allowing the identification of CNVs larger than 25kb.

Testing strategy

Help

High-resolution cytogenomic analysis platform to search for variations in copy number (CNV) and large regions of loss of heterozygosity (LOH). The methodology is based on comparative hybridization of patient DNA versus control DNA on a microarray slide with probes representative of clinically significant regions and SNPs. This platform has a higher concentration of probes in exonic regions of genes, increasing the ability to detect CNVs in single exons. For classification of changes and interpretation of results, CNV data obtained will be compared to changes already described in specialized databases. 000 Medical request is required. Specimen types: total blood with EDTA or extracted DNA (amniocentesis; chorionic villus biopsy; product of conception)
