Targeted Locus Amplification Validated for Lymphoma

Structural variation (SV) in the genome is a recurring hallmark of cancer. Translocations (genomic rearrangements between chromosomes) in particular are found as recurrent drivers in many types of hematolymphoid malignancies. More...

Genotyping Helps Avoid Needless Bone Marrow Biopsies in African-Americans

Bone marrow biopsies may be used unnecessarily in some African American individuals who are genetically predisposed to having relatively low white blood cell counts. More...

MRD Assessed by Multiparameter Flow Cytometry in Transplant-Eligible Myeloma

Multiple myeloma (MM) treatment has considerably improved in the past 15–20 years. The current paradigm for transplant-eligible newly diagnosed MM (NDMM) patients consists of induction, stem-cell mobilization and autologous stem-cell transplantation (ASCT), followed by consolidation and/or maintenance. More...

Monocyte Distribution Width Evaluated as a Sepsis Indicator

Most current automated hematology analyzers have enhanced cell counting functions including the addition of new cell types such as nucleated red blood cells or immature granulocytes, making it possible to obtain a precise quantification of peripheral blood cells in pathological conditions. More...

Leukocyte Differential on Hematology Analyzer Compared and Evaluated

A complete blood count (CBC), also known as a full blood count (FBC), is a set of medical laboratory tests that provide information about the cells in a person's blood. The CBC indicates the counts of white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets, the concentration of hemoglobin, and the hematocrit (the volume percentage of red blood cells). More...

Low-Cost Transcriptional Diagnostic Accurately Categorizes Lymphomas

Lymphoma is a cancer of the lymphatic system, which is part of the body's germ-fighting network. The lymphatic system includes the lymph nodes (lymph glands), spleen, thymus gland and bone marrow. Lymphoma can affect all those areas as well as other organs throughout the body. More...

Point-of-Care Testing Evaluated for Early Coagulopathy Diagnosis

Hemorrhage and coagulopathy are particularly relevant complications and are often connected to injuries, surgical interventions, serious diseases, anticoagulant medication or pregnancy/delivery. Acute bleeding requires fast and targeted therapy and therefore, knowledge of the patient's potential to form a clot is crucial. More...
