The newly established UC Irvine Cytogenetics and Genomics Laboratory started performing clinical testing on April 8, 2021. The laboratory is expected to perform more than 2,000 cytogenetic assays annually for the UCI patient population. The latest technology and methods for preparation, analysis, and reporting are being used for the processing of bone marrows and leukemic bloods. Initially, G-banded Chromosome Analysis and Non-Paraffin Fluorescence in Situ Hybridization (FISH) analysis is being offered for a wide range of clinical hematological cancer for diagnosis and management. The laboratory is directed by Dr. Fabiola Quintero-Rivera, Clinical Professor in the Department of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine, and an American Board on Medical Genetics and Genomics (ABMGG)-certified Cytogeneticists. It is staffed by four California-licensed Clinical Cytogenetics Scientists (CLS) with over 15 years of experience. Services are available in the following areas:
