Sažetak

Molecular karyotyping enables the analysis of the entire human genome on high resolution scale. Smaller genomic mutations (microdeletions, microduplicaitons) that are not detectable using conventional G-banded karyotyping, are present in about 15 % of patients with suspected genetic disease. In certain clinical settings molecular karyotyping has already replaced classical karyotype analysis and is used in postnatal as well as in prenatal genetic diagnosis.

Ključne riječi
