FISH – FGFR1 8p12 GENE REARRANGEMENT Test
Test Cost: AED 980.0
Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Test Details
The FISH – FGFR1 (8p12) gene rearrangement test is a diagnostic test used to detect rearrangements in the FGFR1 gene located on chromosome 8p12. FGFR1 rearrangements are associated with certain types of cancer, including multiple myeloma and certain subtypes of leukemia.
This test uses a technique called fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) to detect the rearrangement. FISH involves labeling specific DNA probes with fluorescent dyes and then binding them to the target gene region. If a rearrangement has occurred in the FGFR1 gene, the fluorescent signal pattern will be altered, indicating the presence of the rearrangement.
The FISH – FGFR1 (8p12) gene rearrangement test is typically performed on a sample of bone marrow or blood cells. It can help in the diagnosis and prognosis of patients with suspected or known FGFR1 rearrangements, as well as guide treatment decisions.
