Genetic risk factors associated with venous thrombosis include mutations in the factor V (Leiden), factor II (prothrombin), and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) genes. We evaluated a method using electronically addressable microarrays for the detection of mutations in these genes that have been associated with vascular disease.
