Hematopathology

EXPERTISE IN HEMATOPATHOLOGY

• Experienced pathologists with subspecialty board-certification in Hematology
• Intradepartmental review of all unusual cases
• Utilization of new and innovative immunohistochemistry, flow cytometric, clinical cytogenetics, and molecular genetics testing
• External expert consultation obtained on the most challenging cases at no cost to you or the patient

SUPERIOR SERVICE

• Rapid turnaround time
• Unique and informative reports with flow cytometric histograms and color photomicrographs provided in those cases having a neoplastic process
• Hematopathologists will call back results on all cases having a neoplastic or preneoplastic disease process
• Hematopathology specific requisition to simplify the ordering process
• Direct access to hematopathologists for consultation
• Easy to use specimen collection kit
• Extensive managed care coverage

INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGIES & REPORTING

• Correlation of current findings in neoplastic and preneoplastic diseases with previous findings when performed by UniPath
• Informative, well designed synoptic reports with color photomicrographs and integrated results from flow cytometry, FISH, clinical cytogenetics, and molecular genetics results
• Electronic reports provide a convenient way to track and view patient cases online
• Industry-leading EMR solutions and interface programs
• Web ordering and reporting
• Proprietary connectivity and reporting IT tools

ADVANCED TESTING

• 10-color, 12-parameter flow cytometry using cluster analysis which maximizes sensitivity for detection of minimal residual disease and low-level neoplastic cell populations
• FISH tests for BCR/ABL, MLL, PML/RARA, BCL1, BCL2, 5q-, -7, and others
• Molecular diagnostics for detection of translocations, mutations, and gene products by PCR and RT-PCR (qualitative and quantitative)
• Analysis for bone marrow transplant engraftment by STR
