 2. BM biopsy: proliferation mainly of the megakaryocyte lineage with increased numbers of enlarged, mature megakaryocytes with hyperlobulated nuclei. No significant increase or left shift in neutrophil granulopoiesis or erythropoiesis and MF1
 3. Exclude other
 4. Presence of JAK2, CALR, or MPL mutation

Q

Monitoring of CML

A
  • Karyotype (5% sens for MRD

  3. CCyR = 1% (Log 2) - 6mo
  4. MMR = 0.1% (Log 3) -1yr
  5. MR4 = 0.01% (Log 4)
