Introduction
The FISH Sperm Aneuploidy Test is a vital diagnostic tool used in the field of reproductive medicine. This test employs Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH) technology to identify chromosomal abnormalities in sperm, specifically aneuploidy. Aneuploidy refers to an abnormal number of chromosomes, which can significantly affect fertility and the health of future pregnancies.
What the Test Measures
This test measures the presence of aneuploidy in sperm cells, focusing on common chromosomal abnormalities, including Trisomy 13, 18, 21, and sex chromosomes. By analyzing the genetic material in sperm, the FISH Sperm Aneuploidy Test provides crucial insights that help in understanding fertility issues.
