Clinical Significance
This panel is designed for basic evaluation and phenotypic subclassification of B- and T-cell lymphoproliferative disorders. Together with CD45/side scatter gating strategy, this panel may also be utilized to identify a subset of granulocytic sarcomas and lymphoblastic lymphomas. Additional tests can also be ordered in conjunction with this panel for further subclassification and confirmation of the results, if neeeded.
