Testing Information
Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH)
Reference Values
Professional interpretation provided by Cascade Pathology Services.
Diagnosis of some chronic myeloproliferative diseases such as polycythemia vera, essential thromobocythemia require exclusion of BCR-ABL1 gene rearrangement. In Acute Myeloid Leukemia/Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia and in precursor T-lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphomas, BCR-ABL1 gene rearrangement and ABL1 gene amplification can be detected, respectively. This probe is part of the Acute Myeloid Leukemia Panel (Adult), probes can be ordered individually.
