What does this test IGH Gene Rearrangement Test By FISH identify?

IGH Gene Rearrangement Test By FISH

The IGH Gene Rearrangement Test By FISH is a diagnostic test that identifies abnormalities in the immunoglobulin heavy chain gene (IGH) through fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) technology. This test specifically looks for rearrangements or translocations involving the IGH gene, which can be indicative of certain types of lymphomas or leukemias.

By detecting these genetic abnormalities, the IGH Gene Rearrangement Test By FISH can help in the diagnosis and classification of lymphoid malignancies, as well as in monitoring disease progression and treatment response. It provides important information for oncologists and hematologists to tailor appropriate treatment strategies for patients.

Why is this test IGH Gene Rearrangement Test By FISH taken?

The IGH Gene Rearrangement Test By FISH is taken to detect and identify abnormalities in the immunoglobulin heavy chain (IGH) gene. This test is typically done to diagnose and monitor certain types of lymphomas and leukemias, such as B-cell lymphomas and chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Rearrangements in the IGH gene can lead to uncontrolled cell growth and division, which are characteristic of cancer. By detecting these abnormalities, healthcare providers can better understand the underlying genetic changes driving the disease and tailor treatment plans accordingly.

The IGH Gene Rearrangement Test By FISH involves using fluorescent probes to specifically target and visualize rearrangements in the IGH gene. This allows for a more precise and accurate assessment of genetic abnormalities compared to other testing methods.
