LOINC Code 85100-6: FLT3 gene internal tandem dup Molgen Ql (BM)

What is this code?

LOINC codes identify tests, measurements, observations, survey items, and clinical questions in a standardized way. It is associated with the component FLT3 gene internal tandem duplication. It is commonly used with the system or sample type Bone mar.

When is it used?

• Used in lab systems, EHRs, and clinical data exchange.
• May identify a test, observation, survey item, or clinical document request rather than a diagnosis.
• Status: ACTIVE
• Order vs observation: Both
• Method: Molgen

What it does not mean

• The code identifies the observation or test, not the actual result.

Key facts

• FLT3 gene internal tandem duplication [Presence] in Bone marrow by Molecular genetics method
• FLT3 gene internal tandem duplication
• Detection of an FLT3 internal tandem duplication (ITD) mutation in bone marrow for the diagnosis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The FLT3 wild type alleles produce a fragment that is approximately 327 +/-1 base pair (bp), while alleles containing an ITD mutation will produces a fragment that is approximately >=330 bp.
