ARUP Genetics Division
The Genetics Division at ARUP provides a comprehensive test menu to assist physicians in the diagnosis of patients with genetic disorders and offers testing in the disciplines of molecular genetics, cytogenetics, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), maternal serum screening, genomic microarray, and biochemical genetics. Committed to providing high-quality genetic testing, ARUP continuously expands its test menu as new procedures and markers of clinical utility are identified. Medical directors and genetic counselors are available for pre- and post-test consultation and interpretation.
Genomics
ARUP Genetics offers genomic services including exome sequencing, next-generation sequencing, and microarray. Exome sequencing may determine the etiology of rare diseases in individuals where a specific diagnosis or cause remains elusive. Next-generation sequencing panels allow investigation of multiple genes simultaneously in situations where there is phenotypic overlap across disorders. Microarray analysis identifies unbalanced chromosomal abnormalities in patients with unexplained abnormal phenotypes such as intellectual disability, dysmorphic features, congenital anomalies, and autism.
