Detection of BCR/ABL gene in chronic Myeloid Leukaemia: comparison of Fluorescence in situ Hybridisation (FISH), conventional Cytogenetics and Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) techniques
The reciprocal translocation t(9;22)(q34;q11) which gives rise to the Philadelphia (Ph1) chromosome and BCR/ABL fusion gene, plays a pivotal role in the diagnosis and pathogenesis of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). In this study, we evaluated the role of fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) in...
