Test Name Alias

IGH and CCND1 t(11;14) by FISH | Fish for Mantle Cell Lymphoma | 965

Interface Order Alias

11410

Quick Collect

AP Ambient

Clinical Information

Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) using the IGH/CCND1 probes are used to detect the IGH locus and the Cyclin D1 gene. The IGH/CCND1 dual fusion identifies cells containing t(11;14) with breakpoints at 11q13 and 14q32. Translocation 11;14 is found in CLL and Mantle Cell lymphoma.

 

Routine chromosome analysis is performed on all diagnostic samples and is recommended on all bone marrow specimens to exclude abnormalities not identified by the specified FISH probe(s).
