Advances in Monitoring and Prognostication for Lymphoma by Flow Cytometry.

ABSTRACT

Flow cytometry (FC) is a well-established method important in the diagnosis and subclassification of lymphoma. In this article, the role of FC in lymphoma prognostication will be explored, and the clinical role for FC minimal/measurable residual disease testing as a monitoring tool for mature lymphoma will be introduced. Potential pitfalls of monitoring for residual/recurrent disease following immunotherapy will be presented.
