Chromosomal Microarray Testing
In Patients with Development Delay, Autism or other Congenital Anomalies
The International Standards for Cytogenomic Arrays (ISCA) Consortium
September 2011
Finally I’d like to briefly inform you of a world-wide effort to improve chromosomal microarray testing, through the International Standards for Cytogenomic Arrays Consortium (or ISCA). The ISCA Consortium is a collaboration of over 160 cytogenetics laboratories from around the world and Mayo Clinic has been highly involved since its conception.
