Chromosome Analysis, Bone Marrow with Reflex to Genomic Microarray
Ordering Recommendation
Use for diagnosis, prognosis, and monitoring of hematopoietic neoplasms. Microarray performed when karyotype results are reported as "normal" or "no growth."
New York DOH Approval Status
Specimen Required
Nondiluted bone marrow aspirate. Collect in a heparinized syringe.
Do not freeze or expose to extreme temperatures. Transfer 3 mL bone marrow to a green (sodium heparin) tube. (Min: 0.5 mL)
Room temperature
Clotted specimens
Clinical indication or reason for testing and specimen type required with test order. Sample will still be processed if this information is not initially provided but appropriate culturing and reporting may be compromised or delayed.
Indicate if patient has received a bone marrow transplant and specify sex of donor.
Ambient: 48 hours; Refrigerated: 48 hours; Frozen: Unacceptable
Methodology
Giemsa Band / Genomic Microarray (Oligo-SNP Array)
Performed
Sun-Sat
Reported
3-9 days
If reflexed, add 7-12 days.
Reference Interval
Refer to report
Interpretive Data
Refer to report.
Laboratory Developed Test (LDT)
Note
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).
