Flourescence In-situ Hybridization
Diagnostic Service: Flourescence In-situ Hybridization
Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is a cytogenetic technique that uses highly specific fluorescent probes to detect and localize the presence or absence of specific DNA sequences. It is the most convincing technique for locating the specific DNA sequences, diagnosis of genetic diseases, gene mapping, and identification of novel oncogenes or genetic aberrations contributing to various types of cancers.
In the field of conventional and molecular cytogenetics, Suraksha aims to be one stop solution for personalized diagnosis in Eastern India. Here, we strictly adhere to the quality and ethical guidelines and reporting is done as per The International System for Human Cytogenetic Nomenclature (ISCN) Guidelines.
