Abstract:
In this review, we discuss applications of flow cytometric immunophenotyping (FCI) in the diagnostic evaluation and posttreatment monitoring of B and T lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma. We describe practical approaches to FCI at the time of diagnosis, with an emphasis on blast identification, lineage assignment, and distinction of B and T lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma from their morphologic and immunophenotypic mimics. We further review flow cytometric assays for the detection of minimal or measurable residual disease (MRD) after treatment, and illustrate both standard approaches, and newer strategies for improving sensitivity and circumventing the loss of immunophenotypic targets after immunotherapy. © 2019 International Clinical Cytometry Society.
