Extended Reporting

At CombiMatrix, we know how busy you are, and how difficult it can be to keep up with the increasing complexity of microarray results interpretation. That is why CombiMatrix now offers extended reporting services for patients with disease-associated and non-diagnostic copy number changes with our Genetic Counseling Reference and Information Guide.

The Genetic Counseling Reference and Information Guide provides a detailed look at each of the recognized genes within the copy number change coordinates, and provides commentary regarding the potential impact of haploinsufficiency or triplosensitivity of these genes on the patient’s phenotype.

To learn if your patients qualifies for a complimentary Genetic Counseling Reference and Information Guide, simply contact our genetic counselor at (510) 479-7273 or mstrecker@cmdiagnostics.com. Please be ready to provide the patient’s:

• Accession number
• First and last name
• Clinical/phenotypic information
• Relevant family history information
