4p16.3 chromosome deletion in Blood or Tissue by FISH   95552-6

LOINC Code


LOINC code95552-6
name4p16.3 chromosome deletion in Blood or Tissue by FISH
descriptionFISH studies are performed to detect a deletion on the short arm of chromosome 4 (4p16.3) in patients, primarily newborns, suspected of having Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome (WHS). FISH signal pattern indicating a loss of 4p16.3 is consistent with a diagnosis of WHS. LOINC codes with a Scale of "Doc" can be used for the order and to represent the overall report and collection of results (clinical indication, method, overall findings, ISCN result, interpretation, etc.).
