Quick results.
The processing times (from receipt of the sample in the laboratory to dispatch of the findings) stated in the following chart usually apply for our methods.
Methods | Required processing times |
Cytomorphology, cytochemistry | 2 hours to 1 day |
| Immunophenotyping | 2 hours to 1 day |
FISH | 1 to 3 days |
| Sequencing | 3 to 10 days |
| Quantitative real-time PCR ± nested PCR | 1 to 5 days |
PCR validation for fusion genes | 1 to 5 days |
PML-RARA clarification at diagnosis | 4 to 6 hours |
B-/T-cell receptor analysis, chimerism analysis | 3 to 10 days |
Chromosome analysis | 3 to 7 days |
24-color FISH, incl. chromosome analysis | 5 to 10 days |
Measurement Uncertainty
Measurement uncertainty describes the scatter of measurement findings. These deviations occur in every stage of analysis. We conduct regular monitoring and take suitable action to recognize the extent of deviation and fluctuation in good time and to restrict these factors to within the prescribed tolerances. On request, we can communicate the individual measurement uncertainty when needed for a meaningful interpretation of our laboratory findings.
