Abstract

In the last decade, the Institute of Hematology and Immunology has established flow cytometry as an indispensable tool for studying hematological neoplasms, extending beyond its traditional use in the diagnosis of immune cytopenias. This article presents advances in its application over the last ten years, highlighting how implementing multiparametric panels has enabled more precise characterization of complex pathologies such as acute leukemias. Its application in identifying aberrant clones in the diagnosis of chronic lymphoproliferative syndromes is analyzed, and to a lesser extent, its application in other non-malignant hematological disorders, immunological diseases, and regenerative medicine is addressed. In addition, it outlines future projections, focusing on the adoption of technologies such as mass spectrometry and the integration of genomic data for studying the tumor microenvironment and minimal residual disease, positioning the institute at the forefront of hematology in the region.
