Siemens Healthineers

|06/16/2021

Join Siemens Healthineers as Dr. Naveen Bangia leads us through the scientific literature that provides a deeper understanding of free light chain biology in patients with, and without, Multiple Myeloma.

Speaking on these findings, Naveen Bangia, Ph.D. Siemens Healthineers, will help you:

  • Understand the differences in Free Light Chain assays that are available
  • Interpret differences in Free Light Chain test results between different methods
  • Explain the reasons for, and practical implications of, non-interchangeable assays
  • Understand the impact of different Free Light Chain assays on patients with renal impairment

If you missed part one, please visit our website to view an overview of the role of free light chains in diagnosing patients with multiple myeloma.
