The morphological investigations are supplemented by karyotyping and/or by a demonstration of breakpoint at 2p23 harboring ALK gene (FISH), and by molecular detection of chimeric genes characteristic of ALK+ lymphomas (NPM-ALK, ATIC-ALK, TPM3-ALK, TFG-ALK, and some even rarer rearrangements).    ///    "The morphological investigations are supplemented by karyotyping and/or by a demonstration of breakpoint at 2p23 harboring ALK gene (FISH), and by molecular detection of chimeric genes characteristic of ALK+ lymphomas (NPM-ALK, ATIC-ALK, TPM3-ALK, TFG-ALK, and some even rarer rearrangements).
