Title: Review of investigative diagnostic techniques for cutaneous lymphoma. Author: Slater DN. Journal: Semin Dermatol; 1994 Sep; 13(3):166-71. PubMed ID: 7986684. Abstract: This article reviews the contribution of modern investigative techniques to the diagnosis of cutaneous lymphoproliferative diseases. Special attention is given to the significance of immunoglobulin and T-cell receptor rearrangements; as detected by Southern blotting and/or the polymerase chain reaction. Additional topics discussed include immunohistochemistry, cytogenetics, onco- and tumour suppressor genes and in-situ hybridization. It is recommended that the results of these techniques are interpreted in the form of a multifaceted diagnostic profile.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
