Laboratory assay overview

This profile can be used to detect clonal B-cell immunoglobulin heavy chain (IGH) and immunoglobulin k light chain (IGK) gene rearrangements in blood, bone marrow and tissue specimens with combined B-cell clonality detection rate of 99%. The presence of a monoclonal gene rearrangement usually, but not always, reflects the presence of a B-lymphocytic neoplasm, while polyclonal gene rearrangement patterns are found in benign reactive condition. Thus, the results of these studies can assist in the diagnosis of lymphoproliferative disorders.

Laboratory assay overview

This assay can be used to detect clonal immunoglobulin receptor kappa-chain gene rearrangements in blood, bone marrow and tissue specimens with combined B-cell clonality detection rate of 94% to 99%. The presence of a monoclonal gene rearrangement usually, but not always, reflects the presence of a B-lymphocytic neoplasm, while polyclonal gene rearrangement patterns are found in benign reactive conditions. Thus, the results of these studies can assist in the diagnosis of lymphoproliferative disorders.

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.
