> Hi James,
> FISH stands for fluorensence in situ hybridization. One can do
> staining on a tissue section or slide. I know someone in R.W. Johnson
> hospital (OB/GYN) who analyzes chromosome abnormality for living. His
> clinical lab could also do FISH, if the probe is provided. The other
> approach is to do gene dosage analysis with PCR. However, the first
> approach is the best.
