Detection of Fusion Genes to Determine Minimal Residual Disease in Leukemia Using Next-Generation Sequencing.

BACKGROUND: Measuring minimal residual disease (MRD), the persistence of leukemic cells after treatment, is important for monitoring leukemia recurrence. The current methods for monitoring MRD are flow cytometry, to assess aberrant immune phenotypes, and digital droplet PCR (ddPCR), to target geneti...
