The genetic material of humans is packed into small units called chromosomes that have their own genetic combinations. The slightest change in the genetic combination of these chromosomes– either addition, deletion, or an exchange – can result in birth defects, developmental delays, autism, and other health issues. The Chromosomal MicroArray is a high-resolution molecular genetic test that screens for such varied chromosomal DNA changes that may otherwise go undetected
