6q deletion in Waldenström macroglobulinemia is associated with features of adverse prognosis
16 Nov 2006
Abstract excerpt
Fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) is an effective technique for the cytogenetic analysis of Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM), but the potential impact of molecular cytogenetics on disease evolution and as a prognostic marker is still unknown.
