What does flow cytometry tell me about my patient’s specimen?

ImpriMed’s flow cytometry report provides comprehensive information about the specimen’s immunophenotype. B-cell and T-cell immunophenotypes are useful in determining lymphoma/leukemia subtype and prognosis. In addition, our panel of ten antigens can also be used in the diagnosis of T-zonal lymphoma, acute leukemia, and other diseases. Antigens levels reported are: CD21, CD79a, CD3, CD4, CD8, CD5, CD45, CD34, CD14, and MHC class II. For more information, see: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26953614/

If I send samples from multiple patients, do I get a discount?

No, but after the first Personalized Prediction Profile service for a given patient, all subsequent Personalized Prediction Profile services for that patient are discounted.

How long until I get my ImpriMed report?

Our flow cytometry, PARR, and Immunoprofile reports are emailed to you 3-4 days after receipt of your patient’s sample(s) at our lab. The Personalized Prediction Profile reports are emailed to you 6-7 days after receipt of your patient’s sample(s) at our lab.

How much blood is required for Personalized Prediction Profile for Canine Lymphoma?

We require at least 2mL of whole blood sample in an EDTA-treated tube.

Does the veterinarian have to be the one to order the ImpriMed services?

No, any staff member affiliated with a veterinarian can submit or order via our portal so long as the leading veterinarian has an account setup.
