[vc_row][vc_column width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text css=””]You will need the information contained in your molecular genomics laboratory report that diagnosed the chromosome 18 condition. Instructions for how to find the information you need in your report, please view this video: “How to Read a Microarray Report<\/a>“<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Select either deletion or duplication.<\/li>\n
  2. Select the Genomic Build Version. This should be indicated on your genomics lab report next to the coordinates of the deletion or duplication. Look for either GRCH37\/hg19<\/strong> or GRCH38\/hg38<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  3. Type in the coordinates of the deletion or duplication. The region you selected will then be indicated by an orange bar to the left of chromosome picture. If you do not know the coordinates or the Genomic Build Version, you can find them on your microarray report from the clinical diagnostic lab. Instructions for interpreting that report are here: “How to Read a Microarray Report<\/a>”\n
