Very excited to share our new study measuring clinical specificity of #immunoglobulin based high-throughput sequencing #IgHTS for #MRD measurement in mature B-cell #lymphomas. #lymsm
ashpublications.org/bloodadvances/… High sensitivity of MRD testing is critical for detecting residual disease, but as sensitivity has increased, the impact on clinical specificity has been less clear.
