Primary immunodeficiencies (PID) are hereditary disorders where cell types can be absent, decreased or dysfunctional. The majority of PID patients have a defect in the lymphoid system, involving B- and/or T-cells alone or in combination with other cells.

In this webinar, Tomas Kalina will explain the role of flow cytometry in the diagnostics of PID, how to perform severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) screening by cytometry and what is the expected immunophenotypical changes in PID.

This webinar is hold by Vincent van der Velden (in Dutch) where he describes how flow cytometry plays a fundamental role in the diagnosis of acute leukemias because immunophenotyping to determine the cell line involved. By using databases, this diagnosis can be further standardized so that reliable and reproducible data can be generated.

The level of minimal residual disease (MRD) is paramount to link the depth of response and long-term outcome. Recent advances in treatment demand a more sensitive response criteria which includes MRD evaluation. Therefore, MRD has been defined as one of the best surrogate markers to predict overall survival and accelerate the approval of new therapies in Multiple Myeloma (MM).

In this webinar, Mantas Radzevičius explain the experience with MM MRD in his clinical laboratory, from a theoretical and practical perspective.

Acute leukemia is a heterogeneous group of disease reflecting stem cell of origin, capacity of maturation and commitment to a specific lineage. Leukemic cells may show early or minimal differentiation and some diagnostic entities can easily be confused with others because of their atypical immunophenotype.

Entities associated with a poor prognosis can be misdiagnosed as acute myeloid leukemia with minimal differentiation (AML-M0) if proper immunophenotyping panels are not routinely performed. In this webinar, Rafik Terra will explain how the use of the EuroFlow™ standardized approach has the potential to improve the diagnostic accuracy of rare entities like BPDCN and ETP-ALL.

The adaptive immune response to SARS-CoV-2 includes specific antibody and T cell responses. The identification of a subpopulation of specific CD4 effector T cells that present the activation markers CD134 (OX40) and CD25 on their surface, which can be detected and quantified by flow cytometry after incubating blood with mitogens and/or specific antigens of pathogens to study, has demonstrated its utility in other infections

In this webinar, Eduardo López Granados, MD, PhD and Luz Yadira Bravo Gallego, MD explain their preliminary experience as an Immunology laboratory in the setting-up of the OX40 assay for the identification of CD4+ T cell specific responses to SARS-CoV-2 peptides, together with its ongoing application to determine the extent and characteristics of the response to natural infection and vaccination.

Primary Immunodeficiency (PID) comprises a complex and heterogeneous group of rare diseases that affect the immune system, disturbing several cell subsets and/or functions. In this webinar, Catarina Martins will highlight how flow cytometry is a highly valuable tool to assist clinicians and researchers in the diagnosis, monitoring and follow up of PID patients, contributing also to a better comprehension of pathophysiological mechanisms.
Addressing the recent EuroFlow™ strategies with the PID Orientation Tube, this webinar will further explore different PID cases using this standardized analysis strategy with Infinicyt™ 2.0 software, allied to database evaluation, crucial considering the rarity of many of these entities.

The EuroFlow™ Lymphoid Screening tube (LST) was designed to identify the major T and B-cell subsets, in addition to NK-cells, monocytes, neutrophils and eosinophils. In the context of hemato-oncology and multiparametric flow cytometry, the classical expert-guided manual gating strategies based on bi-variate dot plots to identify aberrant and residual normal cell populations has become suboptimal in routine diagnosis.

In this webinar, Maria Arroz will address an alternative approach based on automated gating and classification algorithms.
