94592-3
LaboratoryChromosome rearrangement [Identifier] in Blood or Tissue by Mate pair sequencing Nominal
Definition
This term is used to report the mate pair sequencing results, preferably using a standardize nomenclature such as ISCN, for targeted chromosome analysis of neoplastic clones in blood or bone marrow specimens. Testing is performed in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or other myeloid malignancies when previous cytogenetic studies are unsuccessful or detect a chromosome abnormality of unknown significance. Results provide diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic information for patient care.
