Overview

The primary purpose of the AML Panel Deletion/Duplication Detection test is to detect copy number variations (deletions and duplications) in genes associated with AML. This information aids in diagnosis, prognosis, and selection of targeted therapies. It is also used for monitoring minimal residual disease and for genetic counseling of at-risk individuals.

Understanding Your Results

The results of the AML Panel Deletion/Duplication Detection test are reported as positive or negative for deletions/duplications in the analyzed genes. A positive result indicates the presence of a copy number variation that may be associated with AML prognosis or therapy.
📊

No deletion/duplication detected

Normal copy number for all tested genes. No clinically significant copy number variation identified.

📊

Deletion detected in [gene]

Loss of genetic material in the specified gene. May be associated with poor prognosis or specific AML subtype.

📊

Duplication detected in [gene]

Gain of genetic material in the specified gene. May have clinical significance depending on the gene.

⚠️ When to Consult a Doctor:

Consult your oncologist or hematologist if you have symptoms such as persistent fatigue, unexplained fever, easy bruising, or if you have a family history of AML. Genetic counseling is recommended for individuals with positive results.

Limitations

  • MLPA detects only deletions/duplications, not point mutations
  • May not detect balanced translocations
  • Results should be interpreted in conjunction with other clinical findings
  • Not a screening test for general population

Risks & Considerations

  • Minimal risk of bleeding or infection at puncture site
  • Bone marrow aspiration may cause temporary discomfort

Interfering Factors

  • Hemolyzed or clotted samples
  • Insufficient sample volume
  • Contamination during collection
  • Recent blood transfusion may dilute sample
