arrayCGHtutkimuksiin
arrayCGHtutkimuksiin, also known as array comparative genomic hybridization, is a molecular cytogenetic technique used to detect chromosomal copy number variations (CNVs) across the entire genome. It allows for the identification of deletions and duplications of DNA segments, which can be associated with various genetic disorders and diseases, including developmental delays, intellectual disabilities, and certain types of cancer.
The method involves hybridizing labeled test DNA (e.g., from a patient sample) and reference DNA (e.g., from
arrayCGHtutkimuksiin offers higher resolution and genome-wide coverage compared to traditional cytogenetic methods like karyotyping. It can
