FISH for Prenatal or Postnatal Diagnosis Chromosome 13 and 21
Comprehensive Chromosomal Analysis for Better Health Outcomes
Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH) testing for Chromosome 13 and 21 represents a cutting-edge approach to chromosomal analysis that provides rapid, accurate detection of specific genetic abnormalities. This specialized diagnostic tool is essential for identifying Trisomy 13 (Patau syndrome) and Trisomy 21 (Down syndrome), two of the most common chromosomal disorders affecting fetal development and postnatal health.
What Does This Test Measure and Detect?
The FISH test specifically targets and analyzes chromosomes 13 and 21 to identify:
- Trisomy 13 (Patau syndrome) – an extra copy of chromosome 13
- Trisomy 21 (Down syndrome) – an extra copy of chromosome 21
- Chromosomal rearrangements affecting these specific chromosomes
- Aneuploidy detection for comprehensive chromosomal assessment
Who Should Consider This Important Genetic Screening?
This advanced FISH testing is recommended for individuals experiencing:
- Advanced maternal age (35 years or older)
- Abnormal ultrasound findings during pregnancy
- Previous pregnancy with chromosomal abnormalities
- Family history of genetic disorders
- Abnormal first-trimester or second-trimester screening results
- Suspected chromosomal abnormalities in newborns or children
Significant Benefits of FISH Chromosomal Testing
Choosing FISH testing for Chromosome 13 and 21 analysis provides numerous advantages:
- Rapid Results: Receive comprehensive findings within 10-12 days
- High Accuracy: Advanced molecular technology ensures precise detection
- Early Intervention: Enables timely medical decisions and planning
- Comprehensive Screening: Specifically targets high-risk chromosomal abnormalities
- Professional Support: Access to genetic counseling and expert interpretation
