Objectives: Flow cytometry (FC) is a critical diagnostic approach for guiding targeted chemotherapy and cellular immunotherapy for relapsed and refractory lymphoma patients. The aim of the study was to investigate the value of ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (FNA) to improve the quality of FC specimens in relapsed and refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (R/R DLBCL).
Methods: Twenty patients with R/R DLBCL after standard treatment were included.
