Abstract:There remains significant controversy over the techniques used for clonal diagnosis of lymphoproliferative disorders because of questions regarding the sensitivity, specificity and throughput. This has stimulated us to explore the use of gene scan to determine clonality of Immunoglobulin (Ig)/T-cell receptor (TCR) (gamma gene rearrangement in a variety of morphologically, cytochemically, pathologically and immunophenotypically defined precursor B/T-ALL (12 patients), 5 patients with NHL, 10 patients with CLL a… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
