What is BCR-ABL qualitative Real Time PCR?

The BCR-ABL qualitative Real Time PCR test detects the *presence* or *absence* of the BCR-ABL fusion gene in your blood sample. It's a highly sensitive method to confirm if this specific genetic abnormality is present.

Why is this test important?

This test is primarily used for the initial diagnosis of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) and some cases of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL). Confirming the presence of the BCR-ABL gene is crucial for starting appropriate and timely treatment.

How to Prepare

No special preparation required.
