Our lab. is a Haematopathology Service so we perform all studies on the
material: bone marow cytology, cytochemistry, flow, biopsy morphology, lymph
node morphology, immunohistochemistry etc.
In new leukemia cases cytology, cytochemistry and flow immunophenotyping are
reported together within time limits as I indicated in the previous message.
Biopsy takes more time due to histopathological processing.
Best wishes
