American Society for Clinical Pathology Board of Certification (ASCP BOC) · ASCP BOC Scientist in Cytogenetics examination content guideline, revised December 5, 2025; verified for this record on October 13, 2026. No separate effective date is stated in the guideline. The workbook label Clinical Laboratory Specialist in Cytogenetics (CLSp(CG)) uses the historical NCA designation. Primary issuer evidence documents the incorporation of the NCA cytogenetics examination into ASCP BOC; the current successor category is Scientist in Cytogenetics, CG(ASCP). The assigned slug is preserved. These materials follow the current successor blueprint, not a historical CLSp(CG) outline.

This original 20-question sample covers selected topics across the outline. It does not reproduce official exam questions or cover every tested topic.
