What is PML/RARA (AML - M3 [APML]) by FISH?

This test uses a special technique called FISH to look for a specific genetic change, the PML/RARA fusion gene, in your blood cells. This change is strongly linked to a type of blood cancer called Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia (APML).

Why is this test important?

Detecting the PML/RARA fusion gene is crucial for diagnosing APML, a subtype of Acute Myeloid Leukemia. This diagnosis helps doctors choose the most effective targeted treatment, which significantly improves patient outcomes.

How to Prepare
