ACL Laboratories Updates Cytogenetics Testing Forms In an effort to provide optimal patient care and minimize patient safety concerns, ACL Laboratories has updated their Cytogenetics Testing form. Three separate forms, dependent on specimen type, are currently available. The three specimen types include: constitutional, prenatal/products of conception, and oncology. Each form has been updated with our current test offerings and requires specific clinical information that will allow for better test interpretation.

Please recycle all previous Cytogenetics Testing forms and replace them with the appropriate updated form(s) based on the test(s) your practice orders. The forms are available on ACL's Directory of Service at .
