LOINC Code 94589-9: Hematologic neoplasm chromosome analysis Mate pair sequencing Doc (Bld/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 Hematologic neoplasm chromosome analysis. It is commonly used with the system or sample type Bld/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: Mate pair sequencing

What it does not mean

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

Key facts

• Hematologic neoplasm chromosome analysis in Blood or Marrow by Mate pair sequencing
• Hematologic neoplasm chromosome analysis
• This term is used for the order & overall chromosome analysis report for identifying hematologic neoplasms in blood or bone marrow specimens by sequencing methods, such as mate pair sequencing. Results may include the overall findings, the result in ISCN format, testing methods, interpretation, recommendations, and references. This is typically second-tier testing when previous cytogenetic studies have detected an acquired chromosome abnormality of unknown significance.
