Reflex Tests Lists tests that may or may not be performed, at an additional charge, depending on the result and interpretation of the initial tests.

Testing Algorithm Delineates situations when tests are added to the initial order. This includes reflex and additional tests.
This test includes a charge for application of the first probe set (2 FISH probes) and professional interpretation of results. Additional charges will be incurred for all reflex probes performed. Analysis charges will be incurred based on the number of cells analyzed per probe set. If no cells are available for analysis, no analysis charges will be incurred.
When this test and flow cytometry testing for leukemia/lymphoma are ordered concurrently, the flow cytometry result will be utilized to determine if sufficient clonal B-cells are available for FISH testing. If the result does not identify a sufficient clonal B-cell population, this FISH test order will be canceled and no charges will be incurred.
If FISH testing proceeds, probes will be performed based on the lymphoma subtype suspected/identified utilizing the table "Common Chromosome Abnormalities in B-cell Lymphomas" located in Clinical Information.
If the patient is being tracked for known abnormalities, indicate which probes should be used.
The following probe sets are available within this B-cell lymphoma FISH profile:
-8q24.1 rearrangement, MYC
-t(8;14), MYC/IGH
-18q21 rearrangement, BCL2
-3q27 rearrangement, BCL6
-t(11;14), CCND1/IGH
-17p deletion, TP53/D17Z1
-7q deletion, D7Z1/7q32
-18q21 rearrangement, MALT1
Marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) can be evaluated via probes for specific subtypes, as follows: mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma or extra-nodal marginal zone lymphoma (ENMZL) using the MALT1 rearrangement probe and splenic marginal zone lymphoma using probes for 7q deletion and 17p deletion. If no MZL subtype is provided, we will evaluate using probes for MALT1, 7q deletion and 17p deletion.
