Test Overview
Direct immunofluorescence using flow cytometric techniques.
Confirmation of diagnosis and immunophenotype in acute and chronic leukemias and lymphomas. See http://www.pathology.med.umich.edu/handbook/Tables/Flow_Cytometry_Panel… for all Flow Cytometry Panels.
* Reference ranges may change over time. Please refer to the original patient report when evaluating results.
Requires an adequate number of viable cells for analysis. Improper collection or transport may result in decreased cell viability and cancellation of testing. Specimen transport should be arranged so that specimen will be received Monday-Friday and prior to noon on Saturday.

Additional Information
Test includes pathologist interpretation of results billed as a separate additional charge. This test is not available without interpretation. Additonal markers will be run if clinically indicated. Measurement of TdT may be an adjunct to the diagnosis of some leukemias and lymphoblastic lymphomas and will be run at the discretion of the hematopathologist at an additional charge. By ordering this test the clinician acknowledges that additional reflex testing will be performed and billed at a separate additional charge if indicated. For consultation, contact the MLabs Client Services Center or Flow Cytometry Laboratory at 76-39420.
