Aids in diagnosing oligodendroglioma tumors and predicting the response of an oligodendroglioma to therapy
May be useful in tumors with a complex "hybrid" morphology requiring differentiation from pure astrocytomas to support the presence of oligodendroglial differentiation/lineage
Indicated when a diagnosis of oligodendroglioma, both low-grade World Health Organization (WHO, grade II) and anaplastic (WHO, grade III) is rendered
Strongly recommended when a diagnosis of mixed oligoastrocytomas is rendered

This test does not include a pathology consult. If a pathology consultation is requested, PATHC / Pathology Consultation should be ordered and the appropriate FISH test will be ordered and performed at an additional charge.
This test includes a charge for application of the first probe set (2 FISH probes) and professional interpretation of results. Additional charges will be incurred for all reflex probes performed. Analysis charges will be incurred based on the number of cells analyzed per probe set. If no cells are available for analysis, no analysis charges will be incurred.
Chromosomal microarray (CMAPT / Chromosomal Microarray, Tumor, Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded), rather than FISH, may be of benefit to evaluate for acquired alterations associated with the molecular classification of glioma.(1) See Cytogenetic Analysis of Glioma in Special Instructions.
