the immune status of individuals and assess disease progression.
Meets CDC guidelines for HIV monitoring. |
| CD4
(T4)/CD 8 (T8) |

| IMMUNOPHENOTYPING |
|
| Leukemia/Lymphoma/Plasma
Cell Panel |
Used to differentiate
reactive from neoplastic lesions, to subclassify lymphoma, and

| DNA
CELL CYCLE ANALYSIS |
|
| DNA
Cell Cycle Analysis |
Used to predict
ploidy and proliferative activity of certain solid tumors. The
finding of DNA aneuploid and/or a high S-phase fraction predicts
decreased disease free and overall survival times in many malignancies. |
