Synonym(s):

​MM HYPERDIPLOIDY FISH PANEL

Description

Indications

​FISH DNA probes: CEP 9, CEP 11 and CEP 15 are used in the detection of hyperdiploidy in multiple myeloma (MM). A positive hyperdiploid result indicates a favourable outcome.

Specimen Required

​Bone marrow in sodium/lithium heparin.

Storage and Transport

Method

​Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization using direct-labelled FISH DNA probes are hybridized to target loci and analysed under fluorescence microscopy. The probes include: CEP 9, CEP 11 and CEP 15.

Test Results

​Positive or Negative for the FISH panel. FISH findings are reported in accordance to the International System for Human Cytogenomic Nomenclature (ISCN, 2020).

Reference Interval / Value

Turnaround Time

​3 ~ 10 days
