Test Overview & Methodology

The Chromosome XON Microarray High Resolution Test is a genome-wide copy number analysis focusing on X-chromosome variations to diagnose developmental delay, intellectual disability, and congenital anomalies. This test offers superior resolution for detecting submicroscopic imbalances on the X chromosome, supporting early diagnosis and therapeutic intervention.

Feature	Our Test (Affymetrix CytoScan XON)	Standard Oligo-based CMA
Precision & Resolution	Over 2.7 million copy number markers; high-density X-chromosome coverage	~1.8 million markers; lower resolution on X chromosome
Method	Affymetrix XON microarray with SNP genotyping	Oligonucleotide array CGH without SNP component
Turnaround Time	25 working days	30–35 working days

Physician Insight & Safety Protocols

"As a Consultant Medical Geneticist, I emphasize that the Chromosome XON Microarray provides critical data that must be clinically correlated by your specialist to guide personalized care. Our team ensures rigorous quality control at every step of the analysis."

Safety Advisory & Clinical Precautions

Exclusion Criteria & Red Flags

Mandatory Requirement: A duly filled Genomic Microarray Requisition Form (Form 19) is compulsory; incomplete requests will be rejected.
Sample Integrity: 4 mL whole blood in EDTA (Lavender top) must be refrigerated and never frozen. Improper transport leads to sample rejection.
Consent for Minors: In accordance with Federal Decree-Law No. 4 of 2016 on Medical Liability, legal guardian consent is mandatory for individuals under 18 years.
Emergency Red Flags: If the patient develops acute symptoms (seizures, altered consciousness, respiratory distress) before or after sample collection, seek emergency medical care immediately – do not rely on test scheduling.
Exclusion Criteria: Known maternal cell contamination, recent blood transfusion (<2 weeks), or active haematological malignancy may interfere with results.

Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance

1. What exactly does the Chromosome XON Microarray High Resolution Test detect?

The Chromosome XON Microarray High Resolution Test identifies submicroscopic copy number variants (deletions/duplications) across the entire X chromosome with unparalleled resolution. This supports the diagnosis of X-linked intellectual disability, developmental delay, and congenital anomalies.

2. How is the sample collected and what preparation is needed?

Our VIP Mobile Phlebotomy service collects 4 mL of whole blood in an EDTA tube from the comfort of your home. The sample is transported under a strict temperature-controlled cold chain to the laboratory. No special preparation is required.

3. When will I receive my results, and how will I understand them?

Results are delivered within 25 working days. A Consultant Medical Geneticist provides telephonic post-result guidance to explain all findings and their clinical implications in detail.
