Diagnostic study of choice

The diagnostic study of choice in chronic lymphocytic leukemia is peripheral blood flow cytometry. If peripheral blood flow cytometry shows greater than 5000 clonal B cell per microliter, the diagnosis is confirmed. Ancillary tests include bone marrow biopsy and peripheral blood cytogenetics or FISH studies.[1]
