IMMUNOPHENOTYPING BY FLOW CYTOMETRY: LEUKEMIA DIAGNOSTIC PANEL- CLL/HCL/SLL BASIC

Leukemia is a type of cancer that starts in the blood-forming cells of the bone marrow. It causes the production of abnormal white blood cells that do not function properly, leading to a weakened immune system. Immunophenotyping by flow cytometry is a diagnostic test that helps in identifying and classifying different types of leukemia.

What is Immunophenotyping by Flow Cytometry?

Immunophenotyping by flow cytometry is a laboratory technique that uses fluorescently-labeled antibodies to identify and quantify different cell types in a sample. It is commonly used in the diagnosis of hematological malignancies like leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma.

Flow cytometry works by passing cells in a sample through a laser beam. As the cells pass through the laser, they scatter light, which is detected by a series of sensors. Fluorescently-labeled antibodies bind to specific antigens on the surface of the cells, allowing them to be identified and quantified.

Leukemia Diagnostic Panel- CLL/HCL/SLL BASIC

The Leukemia Diagnostic Panel- CLL/HCL/SLL BASIC is a specific immunophenotyping panel used for the diagnosis of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), hairy cell leukemia (HCL), and small lymphocytic leukemia (SLL).

Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL)

CLL is a type of leukemia that affects the lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell. It is the most common type of leukemia in adults. Symptoms of CLL include fatigue, swollen lymph nodes, and recurrent infections.

Hairy Cell Leukemia (HCL)

HCL is a rare type of leukemia that affects the B-cells, a type of white blood cell. It is characterized by abnormal hair-like projections on the surface of the cells. Symptoms of HCL include fatigue, weakness, and recurrent infections.

Small Lymphocytic Leukemia (SLL)

SLL is a type of leukemia that affects the B-cells, a type of white blood cell. It is similar to CLL but affects the lymph nodes more than the blood. Symptoms of SLL include fatigue, swollen lymph nodes, and recurrent infections.

Test Cost and Diagnosis

The cost of the Leukemia Diagnostic Panel- CLL/HCL/SLL BASIC test in India is INR 12,500. The test can be performed on a blood or bone marrow sample. Results are usually available within a few days.

If the test is positive, additional tests like bone marrow biopsy and cytogenetic analysis may be required to confirm the diagnosis and determine the extent of the disease. Treatment options for leukemia depend on the type and stage of the disease and may include chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and stem cell transplantation.

Conclusion

Immunophenotyping by flow cytometry is a valuable tool in the diagnosis and classification of leukemia. The Leukemia Diagnostic Panel- CLL/HCL/SLL BASIC is a specific panel that helps in the diagnosis of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), hairy cell leukemia (HCL), and small lymphocytic leukemia (SLL). Early diagnosis and treatment can improve the outcomes for patients with leukemia.

Get in touch with DNA Labs India for more information about the Leukemia Diagnostic Panel- CLL/HCL/SLL BASIC test and other diagnostic services.

The Leukemia evaluation employs cell surface markers to aid in the diagnosis and characterisation of neoplasms of hematopoietic origin. Results are useful in the differential diagnosis, therapeutic monitoring and detection of relapses of these neoplasms.
