Karyotype in Blood or Tissue --post mitogen stimulation
Karyotyp p mitogen stim Bld/T
Definition
- Karyotype analysis of cells cultured in a medium containing a mitogen, such as phytohemagglutinin, to stimulate lymphocyte proliferation and optimize chromosome band resolution. Stimulation is used when looking for congenital abnormalities. In contrast, for patients with a suspected malignancy, the cells are allowed to divide naturally without stimulation and can be cultured and analyzed in a shorter time period.
