Cytogenetics - Home Page |
|
|
|
|
Cytogenetics involves the study of human chromosomes in health and disease. Chromosome studies are an important laboratory diagnostic procedure in prenatal diagnosis, in certain patients with mental retardation and multiple birth defects, in patients with abnormal sexual development, and in some cases of infertility or multiple miscarriages. |
|
|
The Noth West Regional Cytogenetics Unit at St Mary's Hospital Manchester specialises in high resolution chromosome analysis and molecular diagnosis by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and quantitative fluorescent PCR (QF-PCR). The laboratory is staffed by state registered clinical scientists who work in close association with in-house genetic counsellors and clinical geneticists. We take pride in providing a high quality service with accuracy and efficiency. |
