BCL2, (FISH)
On demand
Order number :
ST-F12
t(14;18) Translocation
Main indication:
Follicular lymphoma.
Test usage:
This test detects the IGH/BCL2 t(14;18) (q32;q21) translocation via fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue specimens. FISH is performed to qualitatively assess for the presence of the IGH/BCL2 translocation that occurs in most follicular lymphomas (FL) and a subset of diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL). Testing for the IGH/BCL2 translocation may aid in the diagnosis of these tumors.
