What Is The Significance Of Del(13q14) On A FISH Test?
There is a Multiple Myeloma Guide published by the Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation that can provide technical information. It is also available for download from their website. Some of these topics can require a rather lengthy answer . I hope this helps.
