“…In their study, a decrease in disomy apparently correlated well with more severe stages, indicating that along with other methods, aneuploidy analysis by FISH may be useful in determining diagnostic and prognostic parameters. In contrast to the results recently published by Cajulis and Frias-Hidvegi, 14 we did not observe a decrease in the number of signals with increasing duration of storage prior to hybridization, although more than 50% of the slides were stored for more than one year. We are wondering if this may be due to the different storage conditions the slides were kept under.…”
