LOINC display name : Chr 12 copy num/nucleus FISH (Tiss) [Entitic number];
LOINC long common name : Chromosome 12 copy number/nucleus in Tissue by FISH;
LOINC short name : Chr 12 copy num/nucleus EntNum Tiss FISH;
LOINC description : Aneusomy (varying number) of chromosome 12 is evaluated by using a DNA probe that
marks the centromeric region of chromosome 12. Such a probe is also called CEP12.
The ratio of the number of signals of the MDM2 gene, also on chromosome 12, to the
chromosome 12 signal [LOINC: 93809-2] can indicate whether or not there is amplification
of the MDM2 gene.;
