Immunophenotyping By Flow Cytometry CD41a Test
Introduction to the Immunophenotyping By Flow Cytometry CD41a Test
The Immunophenotyping By Flow Cytometry CD41a Test is a vital diagnostic tool used primarily in oncology and hematology. This test utilizes advanced flow cytometry technology to analyze blood samples and identify specific cell populations, particularly in the context of blood cancers. Understanding the presence and proportion of CD41a positive cells can significantly influence treatment decisions and patient management.
What the Test Measures
This test measures the expression of the CD41a antigen on the surface of blood cells. By determining the levels of this marker, healthcare professionals can assess the presence of certain types of hematological malignancies, including leukemia and lymphoma.
Who Should Consider This Test?
