LOINC description : Deletions at 17p13.1 involving the TP53 gene can be detected by FISH and used for
the diagnosis of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), multiple myeloma as well as other
forms of cancer. This term is used to report the number of cells that have the deletion
out of total number of cells examined (e.g. 80 out of 100 cells, or 80%). Results
are also typically reported in ISCN (International System for Human Cytogenetic Nomenclature)
format [LOINC: 62356-1]. This term is based, but not limited in use to, the Vysis
LSI p53 (17p13.1) probe, which targets the TP53 gene and flanking regions.;
