PNH by FLAER- High Sensitivity

Understanding PNH by FLAER- High Sensitivity

Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH) is a rare and acquired blood disorder that causes premature destruction of red blood cells (hemolysis). It occurs due to a mutation in the PIGA gene, which results in the absence of protective GPI (glycosylphosphatidylinositol)-anchored proteins on the surface of blood cells. Without these proteins, blood cells become vulnerable to attack by the immune system.

What does PNH by FLAER- High Sensitivity measure?

The PNH by FLAER- High Sensitivity test is an advanced flow cytometry test that aids in diagnosing Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH), a rare blood disorder resulting from a genetic mutation that affects blood cell membranes. This test detects even tiny populations of abnormal cells, allowing early diagnosis and accurate monitoring of disease progression and treatment response.
