Extra Chromosome Sets Analyzed

Nebraska rates for HCPCS 88280

An additional step within a chromosome study, in which further complete sets of a person's chromosomes are photographed, arranged and examined. Looking at more than one set improves the chance of spotting a change that is present in only some cells or that is hard to see in a single set. It is billed in addition to the main chromosome study.
