Testing Algorithm

This test does not include a pathology consult. If a pathology consultation is requested, PATHC / Pathology Consultation should be ordered, and the appropriate fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) test will be performed at an additional charge.

 

This test includes a charge for application of the first probe set (2 FISH probes) and professional interpretation of results. Additional charges will be incurred for all reflex probes performed. Analysis charges will be incurred based on the number of cells analyzed per probe set. If no cells are available for analysis, no analysis charges will be incurred.

 

The test panel includes analysis for the disease-associated abnormalities using the probes listed below:

t(8;21), [M2], RUNX1T1/RUNX1

t(11q23;var), [M0-M7], MLL (KMT2A)

inv(16), [M4, Eos], MYH11/CBFB

t(15;17), [M3], PML/RARA

t(9;22), BCR/ABL1

 

If the patient is being treated for known abnormalities, indicate which probes should be used.

 

Appropriate ancillary probes may be performed at consultant discretion to render comprehensive assessment. Any additional probes will have the results included within the final report and will be performed at an additional charge.
