FISH was developed in early 80s and became one of the most sensitive assays for localization of specific nucleic acid sequences and detection of numerical chromosome abnormalities, structural chromosomal rearrangements and cryptic abnormalities. Bone marrow aspirate and peripheral blood smears can be used for FISH analysis. FISH makes use of fluorescent probes which hybridize only to complementary sequences and the resulting signals are examined under a fluorescent microscope. The utility of specific FISH probes provides intense signals and multiple targets can be visualized simultaneously by using probes labled with different fluorescent colors.
