Question
Can chromosome test results be incorrect?
Answer
Chromosomes are substances within cells that have genetic properties. Normal human body cells have 23 pairs of chromosomes, and chromosomal abnormalities can lead to certain diseases. The purpose of chromosome testing is to detect these abnormalities and make diagnoses. In modern medicine, chromosomal abnormalities are not uncommon. If you have doubts about your child’s test results, it is recommended that you have a retest at another hospital to ensure the accuracy of the results.
