Integration of Newer Genomic Technologies into Clinical Cytogenetics Laboratories

Abstract excerpt

Over the past several decades, clinical cytogenetics has branched out from the use of light microscopy and examination of banded chromosomes to embrace multiple newer techniques, including fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), multiple generations of microarray designs, as well as the newest technologies, namely, optical genome mapping (OGM) and genomic proximity mapping (GPM). While these newer technologies...
