Abstract
Multicolor fluorescence in situ hybridization (mFISH) approaches are routine applications in tumor as well as clinical cytogenetics nowadays. The first approach when thinking about mFISH is multicolor karyotyping using human whole chromosome paints as probes; this can be achieved by narrow-band filter-based multiplex-FISH (M-FISH) or interferometer/spectroscopy-based spectral karyotyping (SKY). Besides, various FISH-based banding approaches were reported in the literature, including multicolor banding (MCB/mBAND) the latter being evaluated by narrow-band filters, and using specific software. Here, we describe the combined application of multicolor karyotyping and MCB/mBAND for the characterization of simple and complex acquired chromosomal changes in cancer cytogenetics.
