Result analysis of 1p-19q co deletion

2017-09-18 06:58:37
Hello there, My sister has undergone a 1p-19q co-deletion test using FISH method as part of her treatment for the brain tumor. The overall result of the test was mentioned as NEGATIVE. What does that really mean ? And if any chromosome gain is there, would they mention in the report ? As it is not mentioned, can I consider that there is no chromosome gain ? I'm attaching the report for your reference. Please help me in understanding the report.
