Abstract
In situ hybridization (ISH) is a technique that uses nucleic acid probes to allow for visualization of nucleic acid sequences in cellular/tissue preparations. Both enzymatic and fluorescent ISH studies can be used as adjunct studies, and in some cases are vital to making specific diagnoses. This chapter will focus on fluorescent in situ hybridization.
