Flow Cytometric Immunophenotypic Assessment of T-Cell Clonality by Vβ Repertoire Analysis

Abstract excerpt

Flow cytometric T-cell receptor (TCR)-V(β) repertoire analysis (TCR-V(β)-R) is a sensitive method for detection of T-cell clonality; however, no uniform approach exists to define clonality in neoplastic T cells. TCR-V(β)-R was evaluated in patients with a diagnosis of T-cell neoplasia in initial diagnostic specimens from 41 patients and for minimal residual disease (MRD) monitoring in 61 sequential samples from...
