## BACKGROUND. The cytomorphologic diagnosis of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) can be difficult and requires ancillary studies for accurate subclassification. More than 95% of MCLs are known to carry the t(11;14) chromosomal translocation. However, traditional cytogenetic studies on cytologic material

## BACKGROUND. Mantle cell lymphoma can be difficult to differentiate cytologically from other small cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Nevertheless, the distinction is important, because mantle cell lymphoma is more aggressive than other small cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas. The purpose of this study was to
## BACKGROUND. Diagnosing lymphoproliferative disorders on fine-needle aspiration (FNA) can be challenging due to variable cellularity and lack of architecture. Ancillary studies often are required for diagnosis. Follicular lymphoma (FL) is characterized by a monoclonal B-cell proliferation with
Multiparameter laser scanning cytometry has been applied to the automatic counting of probe spots and the simultaneous measurement of cellular DNA for fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) prepared specimens counterstained with propidium iodide. Relatively low resolution imaging, highly variable
## Abstract Sixty consecutive evaluable specimens from patients with nonβHodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) were studied for the incidence of polysomy of chromosome 12 by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) with probes for the repetitive DNA sequence in the centromeric region of chromosome 12. Thirtyβs
