Note
Additional information related to the test.
These studies involve culturing of living cells; therefore, turnaround times given represent average times, which are subject to multiple variables.
A processing fee will be charged if this procedure is canceled at the client's request after the test has been set up or if the specimen integrity is inadequate to allow culture growth.
If Chromosome Analysis is "normal" or "no growth," then Genomic Microarray testing will be added. Additional charges apply.
Specimens enrolled in external studies (e.g. COG studies) requireing additional work-up and/or supplementary data collection and submission will have the following charges added based on type and extent of work performed: Cytogenetics Study Submission - Basic (3006071) or Cytogenetics Study Submission - Extensive (3006072).
