Interphase FISH plays an important role in the study of pregnancies with malformations, in mosaicism conditions, in confirming or excluding aneuploidy detected by non-invasive prenatal testing and in diagnosis of contiguous gene syndromes due to microdeletions. The availability of many commercial probes from different genomic regions makes this method versatile and easy to apply in the path of diagnosis and foetal care.
