Are there strict evaluation criterias in FISH testing?

By Marta Barranquero Gómez B.Sc., M.Sc. (embryologist).
Last Update: 09/01/2022

Yes, in sperm FISH defined and not superimposed contours must be evaluated and all hybridization signals must be perfectly located inside the nucleus.

In addition, in cases where more than one signal is detected for each chromosome analysed, all signals must be of equal intensity.
