About this test

AML Panel B uses FISH (fluorescence in situ hybridization) to rapidly detect key genetic abnormalities in acute myeloid leukemia (AML):

  • t(15;17) PML-RARA: confirms acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), an emergency treated with ATRA and arsenic, with excellent outcomes
  • t(8;21) RUNX1-RUNX1T1 and inv(16) CBFB-MYH11: core-binding factor AML, with a favorable prognosis
  • MLL (KMT2A) rearrangement: usually intermediate to high risk

Results help classify AML, predict prognosis, guide treatment and transplant decisions, and monitor response.

Questions about this test

When should I get the AML PANEL B - FISH MLL, FISH t(8;21), FISH t(15;17), FISH inv(16) test?

An AML Panel B (FISH) test is advised by a hematologist at the time of AML diagnosis, or when blood or bone marrow shows myeloid blast cells. It is urgent when APL is suspected, especially with bleeding or clotting problems. It may also be repeated during and after treatment to monitor response and detect relapse.

How should I prepare for the AML PANEL B - FISH MLL, FISH t(8;21), FISH t(15;17), FISH inv(16) test?

No fasting is required for an AML Panel B (FISH) test done on a blood sample. If a bone marrow sample is needed, inform your doctor about blood thinners or bleeding disorders, and fast only if sedation is planned. Ideally, give the sample before starting chemotherapy. Samples must reach the lab promptly for accurate results.

Do I require fasting for the AML PANEL B - FISH MLL, FISH t(8;21), FISH t(15;17), FISH inv(16) test?

No, fasting is not required for an AML Panel B (FISH) test when a blood sample is used. You can eat and drink normally. However, if the test is done on a bone marrow sample under sedation, you may need to fast for 4–6 hours. Follow your doctor’s specific instructions.
