Additional Information

See below for additional information on how to enter data in the ISCN compatible string data field.

• The ISCN compatible string data field has a 1,000 character limit
• Do not report FISH results
  • If the results contain ‘nuc ish,’ do not report the results as these are considered FISH results
• The ISCN compatible string data field error cannot be overridden. If an error is fired, it must be addressed and corrected, or the field left blank and the abnormalities selected in the specific abnormalities detected section of the form
• The ISCN compatible string data field cannot be overridden
• A karyotype report alone cannot be attached
  • Either the ISCN compatible string data field or the number of abnormalities identified along with the specific abnormalities detected must be completed
  • FormsNet3^SM does not have the capability to extract the abnormalities from an attached report
• If only a constitutional abnormality is present, report ‘no abnormalities’
  • The ISCN compatible string and the number of abnormalities identified along with the specific abnormality data fields will not be answered
  • Example: 47,XX,+21[20] is identified at diagnosis
    • +21 represents Down Syndrome which is a constitutional abnormality and should not be reported.
    • In this case, report Yes, karyotype was performed, and No abnormalities were detected

If there are questions on how to use the ISCN functionality, submit a ticket through CIBMTR Center Support.
