Testing for acquired chromosomal aberrations

Test covered by the reimbursement:
YES
Clinical expertise code:
208
Test without reimbursement:
YES
Gender:
Woman/Man
Material:
Peripheral blood
Turnover time:
2-8 weeks

Material:

Peripheral blood | 1x 3 ml of whole blood in K3 EDTA tube
Storage after examination: week after the report is issued 2 – 8°C

Quick test description:

Karyotyping to determine the level of chromosome damage in peripheral blood lymphocytes.

Test details:

By testing acquired chromosomal aberrations from peripheral blood, the level of chromosome damage in peripheral blood lymphocytes can be determined. The testing is indicated especially in case of risk of exposure of the patient to external mutagenic influences or to exclude or confirm any syndrome or disease associated with increased chromosome refraction.

Indication

Determination of frequency of acquired chromosomal aberrations in peripheral blood lymphocytes.
