This classification was last revised in 2008 by World health Organization (WHO) and now incorporates not only morphology, but also flow cytometry (FCM), cytochemistry, immunohisto-chemistry (IHC) and cytogenetics in classifying acute leukemias1 Flow cytometry has exuberantly helped making more accurate diagnosis through identification of cluster of differentiation (CD) markers on leukemic cells surface2.
