BSH/ISH 2016 | The standardization of flow cytometry

Gail Roboz, MD from Weill Medical College of Cornell University, New York, NY discusses the standardization of flow cytometry in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Currently there is a lack of harmonization in ideas of pathologists working with AML. However, Dr Roboz outlines the European Leukemia Net’s attempts to create a standardization of techniques to create a worldwide effort to understand what residual detectable populations mean and how much they need to be reduce in order to demonstrate a new therapy’s efficacy. Recorded at the 2016 Annual Meeting of the British Society of Haematology (BSH) and International Society of Hematology (ISH), in Glasgow, Scotland.
