Free Light Chains & Monoclonal Gammopathies
Impact on Diagnostic Panels
Serum PEL & IFE Results: 428 Pts with Urine Monoclonal Protein
August 2008
Now we see on this slide that if we tested serum with PEL & IFE we missed almost 7% of the cases. The 28 cases that are missed are almost all serious disorders that require intervention and treatment. It is this kind of experience that has led to the recommendations, that both serum and urine should be tested in the diagnostic screen.
