MOLECULAR DIAGNOSTIC CENTER
The OHSU Molecular Diagnostic Center provides DNA based testing for diagnosis, carrier detection, and prenatal diagnosis of many genetic diseases. All current molecular genetic technologies including Southern blotting, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), denaturing high performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC) and DNA sequencing techniques are utilized. These accurate tests are reasonable in cost and require only a blood sample, therefore offering many advantages in the evaluation of patients requiring any of the above. All tests are performed using stringent clinical protocols, assuring prompt turnaround of results. All reports include quantitative predictions of risk based on DNA data and other clinical findings. A board certified clinical molecular geneticist and a board certified clinical medical geneticist report abnormal results directly to the referring physician and discuss interpretation. Immediate final reports are communicated by telephone or FAX transmission.
