Test Overview & Methodology
The LMO2 Immunohistochemistry (IHC) test detects the LMO2 protein in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor tissue, aiding the sub-classification of lymphomas and acute leukemias, particularly in T‑cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T‑ALL) and diffuse large B‑cell lymphoma (DLBCL). This automated IHC assay uses the monoclonal LMO2 clone (1A9-1) on a Leica BOND-MAX platform, achieving 99.9% concordance with FISH.

Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
“The LMO2 immunohistochemical stain is a valuable tool in hemato‑oncology, but it must never be used in isolation. I recommend correlating this result with morphology, flow cytometry, and molecular genetics. A positive or negative LMO2 alone does not confirm or exclude a specific lymphoma – clinical context and multidisciplinary tumor board review are essential.”
— Mr. Prabhakar Reddy Kalathoor, Specialist Diagnostic Radiology, DHA Registration ID: 61713011
⚠ Medication Advisory
Never discontinue prescribed anticoagulants or chemotherapy without consulting your physician until the LMO2 result is fully interpreted in a clinical context. Interrupting therapy based solely on a pending test may lead to adverse outcomes.
Patient Safety: Exclusion Criteria & Red Flags
- Contraindication to biopsy: severe uncorrected coagulopathy, platelet count <20×10⁹/L, or active infection at intended biopsy site.
- Tissue inadequacy: necrotic or heavily crushed specimens may yield false‑negative results; the pathologist may reject sample.
- Emergency Red Flags: sudden bleeding, expanding hematoma, or signs of sepsis after biopsy – seek immediate emergency care.
- Minors: Parental/guardian consent mandatory for all patients under 18, in compliance with UAE data protection laws.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. What does an LMO2 positive result mean for my lymphoma diagnosis?
A positive LMO2 IHC stain indicates that tumor cells express the LMO2 protein, a feature commonly seen in T‑lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma and a subset of germinal center B‑cell‑like diffuse large B‑cell lymphoma, thereby guiding targeted therapy decisions and prognosis assessment.
2. How should I prepare and submit the biopsy sample for LMO2 testing?
Submit tumor tissue fixed in 10% neutral‑buffered formalin or a formalin‑fixed paraffin‑embedded block at room temperature, accompanied by a copy of the histopathology report, biopsy site, and complete clinical history to ensure accurate immunostaining and interpretation.
3. Can I get LMO2 testing done at home and how quickly will I receive the report?
Yes, our DHA‑licensed couriers provide secure medical courier solid tissue specimen retrieval from your home or hospital between 8 AM and 11 PM across the UAE. The standard turnaround is five days for FFPE blocks and seven days for large complex tissues, with results delivered to your WhatsApp and email.
