Cytogenetics

Cytogenetics is the study of normal and abnormal chromosomes in relation to disease. Sometimes called chromosome analysis or karyotyping, cytogenetic tests are used to gain diagnostic and prognostic insights regarding solid tumor cancers and hematologic malignancies, which can be the result of chromosome rearrangements or altered chromosome number (ploidy).
