- Microdeletion Syndrome Detection
所在地を検索
営業時間、予約なし診療およびご予約。Microdeletion syndromes affect every pediatric and genetics practice. The incidence of these syndromes ranges from 1 in 50,000 to 1 in 8000. Diagnosis can be complicated by a negative family history and seemingly normal routine chromosome analysis. LabCorp continues its leadership in the field of diagnostic genetics by making available high-resolution chromosome analysis and FISH for many microdeletion syndromes. A partial listing of available tests follows.
