Search Tips

Wildcards Symbol (*)

The wildcard symbol (*) can be used in place of letters or characters in query words to search for different permutations of a word.

*	Can be in any position in the term and matches any number of characters.
Examples:	hemo*	matches hemolytic, hemophilia and hemophilia
	*NA	matches DNA and RNA
	*tet**	matches text and test
	BCL*	matches bcl-1/JH and bcl-2/JH
	virus*	matches virus or viruses
	*glucan*	matches beta-1,3-d-Glucan

Boolean Parameters

Search terms can be a single word or several words. The search engine automatically inserts and between words if nothing else is specified, so the Boolean term and can be omitted in search terms. For example, searching for tissue assay is the same as searching for tissue AND assay.

Quotes can be used to search for phrases. For example:

"tissue assay "

Words must be present in the specified order with no intervening words

The following boolean connectors can be used: AND, OR, NOT Examples:

tissue AND assay	Both words must be present
tissue OR assay	Either word can be present
assay NOT tissue	Only assay can be present, tissue cannot appear on the page

Chromosome FISH, Interphase : 2002298

Time Sensitive

Patient History For Cytogenetics (Chromosome) Studies

Mnemonic: CHR FISHI

Methodology:	Fluorescence in situ Hybridization
Performed:	Sun-Sat
Reported:	3-10 days
Specimen Required:	Collect: 3 mL non-diluted bone marrow aspirate collected in a heparinized syringe and transferred into a green (sodium heparin). Also acceptable: Whole blood: one 10 mL green (sodium heparin). Other specimen types may be acceptable, contact the Cytogenetics Laboratory for specific specimen collection and transportation instructions. Storage/Transport Temperature: 3 mL bone marrow or 10 mL whole blood at 20-25°C. (Min: 1 mL bone marrow or 2 mL whole blood) Remarks: It is recommended that all FISH studies be done in conjunction with routine cytogenetic analysis. (Refer to appropriate Chromosome Analysis test for order instructions). If FISH only is requested, please submit a copy of previous cytogenetics report. If cell pellets or dropped cytogenetic slides are submitted, processing fee will not apply. This test must be ordered using Cytogenetic test request form 43097 or through your ARUP interface. Please submit the Patient History Form - Chromosome Studies with the electronic packing list. The form is available on ARUP's Web site, http://www.aruplab.com/home/consent_forms.jsp. Unacceptable Conditions: Frozen, clotted, or paraffin-embedded specimens. Stability (collection to initiation of testing): Ambient: 48 hours; Refrigerated: Unacceptable; Frozen: Unacceptable

Reference Interval: By report
Interpretive Data:	Please refer to Statement A in the Compliance Statements section in the front of the Laboratory Test Directory.
Note:	Time required for testing can vary depending on specimen type and probes ordered. Please indicate the names of probes needed for testing. Molecular Cytogenetics (FISH) Probe menu is available at http://www.aruplab.com/Lab-Tests/Genetics/cytogenetics.jsp Contact ARUP Genetics Processing at extension 3301 to add a probe to a current specimen.
CPT Code(s):	88271 DNA probe each; 88275 Interphase in situ hybridization 100-300 each; 88291 Interpretation and report - Additional CPT codes modifiers may be required for procedures performed to test for oncologic or inherited disorders
