Laboratory assay overview

Chromosomal abnormalities are detected in 80-85% of myeloma patients. One or more extra copies of 1q21 has been associated with poor prognosis in patients with newly diagnosed myeloma, whether as a sole abnormality or in combination with other nonrandom abnormalities. Prognostic factors such as this are helpful to clinicians in determining therapy and predicting long-term survival.

Verify these ranges and sources

We compile every detail above directly from named laboratory directories and published clinical studies. Laboratories calculate standard reference intervals from the statistical distribution of tested populations for a specific assay method and demographic group, rather than setting universal optimal targets.

Always review your personal lab results with a licensed clinician, or track your lab history and health goals in Aumnivida.
