Epic Code LAB2111348 Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) Probe Panel by FISH
Test Name Alias
Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) Probe Panel by FISH | 990
Interface Order Alias
11362
Clinical Information
This probe panel detects specific numerical and structural chromosome abnormalities commonly associated with AML.
Routine chromosome analysis is performed on all diagnostic samples and is recommended on all bone marrow specimens to exclude abnormalities not identified by the specified FISH probe(s).
