IGM HEAVY CHAIN (SURFACE)
The IgM Heavy Chain (Surface) test uses flow cytometry to measure the expression of IgM on the surface of cells. It helps diagnose B-cell malignancies, such as chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or Waldenström's macroglobulinemia. The test is valuable in understanding clonal expansions of IgM-expressing B-cells.
