Integrated Hematooncology Diagnostic Methodology
The application of multiple complementary diagnostic disciplines ranging from cytomorphology, histopathology, immunophenotyping, cytogenetics and molecular genetics underpins the modern diagnosis and management of hematological malignancies. The concurrent application of these techniques does not only define a diagnosis, but can also provide significant prognostic information, guide therapeutic decisions, monitor response to treatment and give early warnings of disease relapse.
