INTRODUCTION
The use of flow cytometric testing in analyzing bodily fluid for hematologic neoplasms is not novel. Flow cytometric immunophenotyping of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) has previously been demonstrated to have high sensitivity and specificity for the detection of lymphoma and leukemia. They are able to determine definitive diagnostic information from even very low cellularity samples. In this study, we reviewed the experience of our clinical flow cytometry laboratory in evaluating CSF specimens in order to find the disease distribution of positive CSF samples.
