Note

This assay is a minimal residual disease assessment of B-ALL by flow cytometry.

Available markers*: CD3, CD9, CD10, CD13, CD19, CD20, CD33, CD34, CD38, CD45, CD58, CD71, Syto 16, CD66b, CD24, CD22

*Not all markers will be reported in all cases.

If COG panel is not specified, a 10-marker panel will be run:
CD10, CD19, CD20, CD22, CD24, CD34, CD38, CD45, CD58, CD66b

If COG panel is specified, indicate time point and specimen type:

DAY 8 Peripheral blood sample will have CD10, CD19, CD20, CD34, CD45, and Syto 16 run and reported. (6 markers total).

Day 29 Bone marrow sample will have CD3, CD9, CD10, CD13, CD19, CD20, CD33, CD34, CD38, CD45, CD58, CD71, Syto 16 run and reported. (13 markers total).

The report will include a pathologist interpretation and a marker interpretation range corresponding to CPT codes of 2-8 markers or 9-15 markers interpreted. Charges apply per marker.
