Hematological Neoplasm Cytogenetics Profiled With Optical Genome Mapping

The current standard-of-care cytogenetic techniques for the analysis of hematological malignancies include karyotyping, fluorescence in situ hybridization, and chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA), which are labor intensive and time and cost prohibitive, and they often do not reveal the genetic complexity of the tumor, demonstrating the need for alternative technology for better characterization of these tumors. More...
