What Tests are Used to Monitor Myeloma? image

Understanding your labs, particularly your blood and urine tests, is critical to knowing where you stand with your myeloma. Below are some video excerpts from our HealthTree University curriculum to help you learn more about this important aspect of your disease.

8.01    How is myeloma monitored?

 

8.02    What blood tests are used to measure myeloma and monitor response?

 

8.03    What is Immunofixation? (IFE)

 

8.04    What does the quantitative immunoglobulin test measure?

 

We’d like to thank our faculty who donated their time in creating these videos, including:

  • Cesar Rodriguez Valdes, MD
  • Morie Gertz, MD, MACP
  • Natalie Callander, MD
  • Adam Cohen, MD
