===Probe types===

Types:

*Fusion - usually two ~~colours.~~

*Fusion - usually two colours , e.g. [[translocations|IGH/BCL2 translocation]], BCR/ABL translocation.

**Two colour - two different probes with different colours, e.g. [[translocations|IGH/BCL2 translocation]].

**Two colour - two different probes with different colours.

**Two colour fusion with extra signal - similar two colour fusion.<ref name=pmid12764379>{{Cite journal | last1 = Primo | first1 = D. | last2 = Tabernero | first2 = MD. | last3 = Rasillo | first3 = A. | last4 = Sayagués | first4 = JM. | last5 = Espinosa | first5 = AB. | last6 = Chillón | first6 = MC. | last7 = Garcia-Sanz | first7 = R. | last8 = Gutierrez | first8 = N. | last9 = Giralt | first9 = M. | title = Patterns of BCR/ABL gene rearrangements by interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) in BCR/ABL+ leukemias: incidence and underlying genetic abnormalities. | journal = Leukemia | volume = 17 | issue = 6 | pages = 1124-9 | month = Jun | year = 2003 | doi = 10.1038/sj.leu.2402963 | PMID = 12764379 | url = http://www.nature.com/leu/journal/v17/n6/full/2402963a.html }}</ref>

***One of the (true) translocations ~~will have only two colours~~ (e.g. Philadelphia chromosome).

***One of the (true) translocations (e.g. presence of a Philadelphia chromosome) will have only two colours (red and green or yellow).

***The derivative chromosome (e.g. derivative 9 chromosome in Philadelphia chromosome cells), which may be lost, will have all three colours.

***A (non-pathologic) coincidental colocalization (or overlap) of probes will consist of all three colours.
