Book excerpt: This publication combines and extends the now classic system of human cytogenetic nomenclature that has been prepared by expert committees and published in, or in collaboration with, Cytogenetics and Cell Genetics since 1963. The current ISCN committee and its advisors finalized the report at a meeting in Memphis, Tennessee in October 1994. It updates, corrects and combines all previous human cytogenetic nomenclature recommendations into one systematically organized publication. ISCN 1995 includes, supersedes, and reorganizes the previous compilation in ISCN 1985 and its supplement, ISCN 1991, the Guidelines for Cancer Cytogenetics. Also, some minor inconsistencies of the previous compilations are corrected and clarified.
