Abstract
Flow cytometry plays an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of plasma cell diseases, particularly in the detection of circulating plasma cells (CPCs) in the peripheral blood. A consensus about the normalized use of flow cytometry in detection of CPCs in peripheral blood in clinical practice has been achieved. This consensus is founded on evidence-based principles, which elucidates the timing and value of flow cytometry for the detection of CPCs in the monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance, smoldering myeloma, multiple myeloma, and plasma cell leukemia and standardizes flow cytometry in the detection of CPCs in plasma cell diseases.
