Immunophenotyping by Flow Cytometry CD64 Test
Introduction
The Immunophenotyping by Flow Cytometry CD64 Test is a sophisticated diagnostic tool that plays a pivotal role in the assessment of immune cell populations in patients, particularly those with cancer. This test utilizes advanced flow cytometry technology to analyze the expression of CD64, a receptor on the surface of immune cells, which can provide insights into the immune status of patients.
What the Test Measures
This test specifically measures the expression of CD64 on monocytes, which is crucial for understanding the immune response in various conditions, especially in malignancies. Elevated levels of CD64 can indicate an active immune response, often seen in patients with hematological cancers.
Who Should Consider This Test
Individuals who exhibit symptoms related to hematological malignancies, such as unexplained fevers, weight loss, or abnormal blood counts, should consider undergoing this test. Additionally, those at risk due to family history or other predisposing factors may also benefit from this assessment.
Benefits of Taking the Test
- Provides critical information for the diagnosis and monitoring of cancers.
- Helps in tailoring treatment plans based on immune status.
- Facilitates early detection of disease progression or response to therapy.
Understanding Your Results
Results from the Immunophenotyping by Flow Cytometry CD64 Test will indicate the level of CD64 expression. A higher expression may suggest an active immune response, while lower levels may indicate immune dysregulation. It is essential to discuss your results with your healthcare provider to understand their implications fully.
