Multiparameter Flow Cytometry: An Important Auxiliary Tool for The Diagnosis and Differential Diagnosis of Myelodysplastic Neoplasms
Journal Title: Diseases & Research - Year 2023, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Multiparameter flow cytometry (MFC) shows promise in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of myelodysplastic neoplasms (MDS). By identifying abnormal immunophenotypes of different cell lineages in bone marrow (BM) cells, MFC can aid in the differential diagnosis of some bone marrow failure diseases. Several flow cytometry scoring systems have been established based on current parameters, but there is still no specific immunophenotype available for the diagnosis of MDS. Morphological examination of cells remains the gold standard for MDS diagnosis. In the future, identifying specific cell immunophenotypes may improve MDS diagnosis and alter the use of MFC. MFC may also provide a solution for tracking the evolution of specific abnormal hematopoietic clones in MDS.
