AB  - Certain lymphoma types are characterized by recurring genetic translocations. 
      Detection of these translocations enables confirmation of a suspected diagnosis 
      and provides a genetic marker which can be subsequently monitored and followed. 
      Rapid and reliable identification of these molecular rearrangements is a key 
      component in the workup of lymphoma. While conventional cytogenetics may be a 
      useful tool in this regard, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) offers 
      additional advantages including the ability to use formalin-fixed tissues, no 
      requirement for dividing cells, ability to score many cells, improved 
      sensitivity, and faster turnaround time for results.
