Test Details:
The FISH (Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization) test for Multiple Myeloma with positive selection of CD138 cells is a diagnostic test used to detect chromosomal abnormalities in the CD138 cells of patients with Multiple Myeloma. Multiple Myeloma is a type of cancer that affects plasma cells, a type of white blood cell responsible for producing antibodies. In this test, CD138 cells, which are a subset of plasma cells, are isolated and analyzed for specific chromosomal abnormalities.
The FISH test involves the use of fluorescent probes that bind to specific regions of the chromosomes. These probes are labeled with different fluorescent dyes, allowing for the visualization and identification of specific chromosomal abnormalities. By analyzing the CD138 cells, the FISH test can detect abnormalities such as translocations (when a part of one chromosome breaks off and attaches to another chromosome), deletions (loss of genetic material), or amplifications (duplication of genetic material) that are commonly associated with Multiple Myeloma.
The positive selection of CD138 cells ensures that the test focuses specifically on the plasma cells affected by Multiple Myeloma, increasing the accuracy of the results.
Overall, the FISH test with positive selection of CD138 cells is an important tool in the diagnosis and monitoring of Multiple Myeloma, providing valuable information about the genetic abnormalities present in the disease.
