摘要: The BIOMED-2 group developed and approved a set of multiplex Ig T cell receptor PCR primers successfully applied these to different well-defined WHO lymphoma entities with unprecedented high frequencies malignant cases showing clonality. This approach has now become worldwide standard clonality testing in lymphoproliferations. While the assessment by GeneScan and/or heteroduplex analysis relatively easy perform, evaluation obtained gene rearrangement patterns can be difficult. In this review, we will address specific aspects testing, concerning both practical phase as patterns, which help overcome problems that encountered routine diagnostic setting.
