چکیده
Evaluation of B-lymphocytes is one of the most well-established clinical applications of flow cytometric immunophenotyping. This article addresses general principles of the flow cytometric evaluation of B-cell lymphoid neoplasms, followed by discussion of how flow cytometric data can assist in determining a list of diagnostic possibilities and directing additional testing.
