Cytogenetic characterization, particularly by interphase fluorescence in\u00a0situ hybridization (FISH), is critical for risk stratification and treatment decisions. FISH results depend on the PC infiltration rate in bone marrow (BM); therefore, CD138\u2010positive immunoselection is required to overcome reduced FISH sensitivity due to low infiltration. We evaluated the performance of automated PC immunoselection compared to the manual method.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      We retrospectively analyzed data from 715 BM samples sent for routine FISH testing between 2019 and 2024.

BM infiltration was assessed by flow cytometry (FC) and\/or cytomorphology. FISH analysis was performed using a primary panel with three DNA probes or an expanded panel with additional probes. Confirmed diagnoses were obtained from clinical records.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      FISH was successfully performed in 81% of samples, with automated processing achieving a higher success rate (86% vs. 75%,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.001). Automated processing provided higher PC yields, enabling testing with expanded probe sets. Chromosomal abnormalities were detected in more than 90% of confirmed MM cases, regardless of isolation method. PC infiltration strongly predicted FISH success, with infiltration of \u2265\u20093% corresponding to an 80% probability of successful FISH.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Automated immunoselection improves PC yield, enabling broader FISH testing compared to manual processing.
