Higher resolution banding techniques in the clinical routine.
Experience with higher resolution banding techniques is described. Cell synchronization and different chemicals which delay the mitotic condensation process were tried. None of these agents alone was able to induce undercondensation in a sufficient way in any of the patients investigated. Of the banding techniques, GTG banding proved preferable, but in some special cases RBA banding will be more informative.
