Test Code: CYT010

Multi-Locus Imprinting Disorders

Cytogenetics
This multi-locus imprinting assay detects copy number variations and methylation abnormalities across 14 DMRs on 8 chromosomes, and determines the parental origin of triploid pregnancies. It is indicated for suspected imprinting disorders including Beckwith-Wiedemann, Silver-Russell, Prader-Willi, Angelman, Temple, Kagami-Ogata, transient neonatal diabetes mellitus, and cases of suspected multi-locus imprinting disturbance (MLID) or triploidy.
Sample Type
