Noemí Puig, MD, PhD, University Hospital Salamanca, Salamanca, Spain, discusses the important role of mass spectrometry in multiple myeloma, and highlights the advantages of this method versus other conventional methods, based on studies conducted by the Spanish Myeloma Group. Dr Puig explains the higher sensitivity associated with mass spectrometry compared to serum protein electrophoresis and immunofixation, and further discusses the prognostic value of mass spectrometry. To conclude, Dr Puig compares the use of mass spectrometry to next-generation flow (NGF). This interview took place at the 9th World Congress on Controversies in Multiple Myeloma (COMy) 2023, held in Paris, France.
