PSIP announces availability of FISH services January 2011

Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is a powerful technique for detecting
DNA or RNA sequences in cells, tissues and tumors. This molecular cytogenetic
technique enables the localization of specific DNA sequences within interphase
chromatin and metaphase chromosomes and the identification of both structural
and numerical chromosome changes. FISH is quickly becoming one of the most
extensively used cytochemical staining techniques owing to its sensitivity and
versatility, and with the improvement of current technology and cost
effectiveness. PSIP is
currently offering FISH services for Myelodysplasia syndrome MDS, B-cell
lymphoma panel, Bcr-Abl for chronic myeloid leukemia, Chronic Lymphocytic
Leukemia and Multiple Myeloma and
will soon expand into Her-2-neu for breast cancer and Urovysion for bladder
cancer with additional panels to come.
