[tri-med] Re: mosaic vs. full trisomy

Barb
If I remember correctly, I think they only looked at like 60 cells or
something like that. I think that was just a prelim. Test though. Not sure
what they did for the "official" test. But, with those 1st 60-it already had
come back that not all of the cells were affected...therefore they assumed
Mitchell was mosaic. I'm guessing that if the full 60 came back all t13,
they would've assumed he was "full t13". I am not a genetic expert at
all...:) I wish I knew more. :) And understood more.
