What is a Chromosome 18 abnormality?<\/h4>

The definition of a chromosome abnormality has evolved over the last 50 years as the technology to detect them has become more sophisticated and can detect smaller and smaller chromosome changes.<\/p><\/div> \n <\/a>[\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″]\n \n \"\"\n

Chromosome 18 Clinical Management Guides<\/h4>

We compiled our almost 30 years of experience and over 50 publications focused on understanding and improving the lives of people with Chromosome 18 abnormalities.<\/p><\/div> \n <\/a>[\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″]\n \n \"\"\n

Chromosome 18 Gene Dosage Map<\/h4>

We have created a map-based tool that annotates the genes and chromosome regions with clinical relevance when either duplicated or deleted. As the clinical effects are due to abnormal gene dosage, we are referring to this tool as gene dosage maps.<\/p><\/div> \n <\/a>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/5″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/5″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/5″][vc_single_image image=”484″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/5″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/5″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” el_class=”bleed color roomy”][vc_column width=”1\/2″]
