Cytogenetics

At Abi Diagnostic Centre, an Aster Labs Franchise in Parasala, Trivandrum, we provide advanced Cytogenetics services to help diagnose genetic disorders, inherited conditions, and chromosomal abnormalities. As one of the most specialized branches of diagnostic pathology, cytogenetics plays an essential role in guiding treatment plans for both children and adults with genetic conditions.

Cytogenetics involves the study of chromosomes, their structure, function, and any abnormalities that may lead to disease. By examining the genetic makeup of cells, doctors can identify chromosomal changes that contribute to conditions such as Down syndrome, Turner syndrome, Klinefelter syndrome, and other congenital disorders. In addition, cytogenetics is widely used in cancer diagnosis and prognosis, as many blood cancers (like leukemia and lymphoma) and solid tumours are associated with chromosomal abnormalities.

At our centre in Parasala, Trivandrum, we use cutting-edge laboratory technologies and internationally approved protocols to perform various cytogenetic tests. Our services include:

  • Karyotyping to detect chromosomal number and structure abnormalities

  • Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH) for precise gene mapping and detection of small chromosomal changes

  • Prenatal cytogenetic testing for high-risk pregnancies

  • Molecular cytogenetics for deeper genetic insights in complex cases

With the strong backing of Aster Labs and Aster DM Healthcare, our cytogenetics department ensures accuracy, reliability, and fast reporting. Patients and clinicians across Parasala and the wider Trivandrum district rely on us for trustworthy results that directly impact medical care.

Our reports are not just laboratory findings but also include clinically relevant interpretations, ensuring that treating doctors receive valuable insights for better management of patients. This is particularly important for individuals undergoing fertility treatments, prenatal testing, or cancer management.

By offering cytogenetics testing locally in Parasala, we help reduce the need for patients to travel long distances for advanced diagnostics. We bring world-class genetic testing closer to the community, saving time while maintaining global standards of care.

At Abi Diagnostic Centre, Parasala, Trivandrum, we are committed to combining technology, expertise, and compassionate care to deliver genetic clarity that transforms lives.
