DESCRIPTION
The Array Comparative Genomic Hybridisation (aCGH) test is used to identify
abnormalities in a genome when either part of the genetic sequence in a
chromosome is deleted or added to – that might lead to cancer. aCGH test can help
doctors understand the chromosomal abnormality, these abnormalities could be
linked with parts of regions that might be useful to identify the origin of a primary
tumour.
