Testing Algorithm
Delineates situation(s) when tests are added to the initial order. This includes reflex and additional tests.
This panel includes analysis for the disease-associated abnormalities using the 8 probe sets listed below.
1p32, STIL/TAL1
t(5;14)(q35;q32), TLX3/BCL11B
t(7q34;var), TRB
9p-,CDKN2A/9 Cen
t(9;22)(q34;q11.2) or ABL amplification, ABL1/BCR
t(10;11)(p13;q14), MLLT10/PICALM
t(11q23;var), MLL
t(14q11.2;var), TRAD
If abnormalities are detected using either the TRAD or MLL probes, reflex testing will be performed using the following probes sets, respectively:
t(8;14)(q24.1;q11.2), MYC/TRAD
t(10;14)(q24;q11.2), TLX1/TRAD
t(11;14)(p15;q11.2), LMO1/TRAD
t(11;14)(p13;q11.2), LMO2/TRAD
t(4;11)(q21;q23), AFF1/MLL
t(6;11)(q27;q23), MLLT4/MLL
t(10;11)(p13;q23), MLLT10/MLL
t(11;19)(q23;p13.3), MLL/MLLT1
Unless specified, the 8-probe panel will be run on all specimens. If the patient has been previously identified with a specific abnormality, only those appropriate previously abnormal probe sets will be used to monitor the chromosome anomaly.
When this test is ordered, a charge for 2 FISH probes and interpretation is included. If additional probes or the entire panel are ordered, additional probe charges will be added.
