BCR/ABL - Bone Marrow/Leukemic Blood-FISH Test in Balotra

Sterling Accuris Diagnostics offers the BCR/ABL - Bone Marrow/Leukemic Blood-FISH test in Balotra, a pivotal diagnostic tool for specific blood cancers.
Overview of the BCR/ABL - Bone Marrow/Leukemic Blood-FISH
This test involves Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH) technology to detect the BCR/ABL gene fusion in bone marrow or leukemic blood samples.
BCR/ABL refers to a gene fusion where parts of the BCR (Breakpoint Cluster Region) gene and the ABL (Abelson leukaemia virus) gene merge abnormally. This fusion results in an abnormal protein that promotes the growth of cancer cells. It's a key marker in certain types of leukaemia.
CML is a type of cancer that starts in the bone marrow's blood-forming cells and gradually moves to the blood. It's characterised by the BCR/ABL gene fusion, typically associated with the Philadelphia chromosome. CML predominantly affects adults and progresses more slowly than other forms of leukaemia.
Ph+ ALL is a subtype of acute lymphoblastic leukaemia where the cancer cells contain the Philadelphia chromosome, which involves the fusion of the BCR and ABL genes. This subtype is more aggressive and requires specific treatment approaches.
Why and When is the BCR/ABL - Bone Marrow/Leukemic Blood-FISH Done?
FISH is a lab technique to detect and locate specific chromosome DNA sequences. It uses fluorescent probes that bind to only those parts of the chromosome with which they show a high degree of sequence similarity. This method is beneficial for identifying chromosomal abnormalities and is used in the BCR/ABL - Bone Marrow/Leukemic Blood-FISH test in Balotra, essential for:
- Confirming the presence of BCR/ABL gene fusion, thereby aiding in diagnosing CML or ALL.
- Monitoring the response to treatment in patients diagnosed with these leukaemias.
- Assessing the disease progression or remission status in ongoing treatment scenarios.
BCR/ABL - Bone Marrow/Leukemic Blood-FISH: Main Highlights
- Instructions: No special fasting is required. A doctor’s prescription is suggested.
- Recommended Age: Applicable to all age groups, especially those suspected of having CML or ALL.
- Sample Type for Test: Bone marrow aspirate or peripheral blood sample in an EDTA tube.
- TAT: Results are typically available within 1-2 weeks.
FAQs
What is the significance of detecting BCR/ABL gene fusion?
Identifying the BCR/ABL gene fusion is crucial for diagnosing specific types of leukaemia and determining the appropriate treatment approach.
What makes FISH technology suitable for this test?
FISH allows for precise localisation and visualisation of specific genetic changes in the chromosomes, making it highly effective for detecting the BCR/ABL fusion gene.
Are there any risks associated with this test?
The test involves a standard procedure for collecting bone marrow or blood samples, which carries minimal risks typical of such procedures.
