Test Information

Name: FISH Multiple Myeloma Panel

Code: G1522-BI

Sample Type: Blood

Turnaround Time (TAT): 17 days

Preparation & Notes

Multiple myeloma FISH is performed on magnetically enriched plasma cells. For this enrichment, we need a heparin bone marrow specimen. This method does not work with fixed cells. (Depending on the type of the plasma cell neoplasia and the position of the bone marrow puncture, the percentage of plasma cells in bone marrow aspirates varies from mildly elevated to over 90%. Therefore, enrichment of these cells is necessary and crucial for a meaningful test result. )
