Understanding Your Results

Results indicate the presence or absence and level of NPM1 mutation, which correlates with minimal residual disease.
Detectable NPM1 mutation: Indicates residual disease, may require further treatment.
Not Detected: Suggests absence of measurable residual disease.
Quantitative levels: Higher levels may indicate higher risk of relapse.
⚠️ When to Consult a Doctor:

If symptoms of AML reappear or if test results indicate detectable MRD, consult your oncologist for further management.
