Multiple myeloma considerations for primary care

7 Sept 2026

This infographic provides a practical overview of multiple myeloma recognition, diagnostic testing, and referral considerations for primary care providers. Learn how serum protein electrophoresis (SPEP), immunofixation and serum free light chain (sFLC) testing can support the detection of monoclonal proteins and plasma cell disorders. Discover key diagnostic criteria, interpretation considerations, and referral pathways, helping clinicians identify patients who may require further hematology evaluation and support earlier diagnosis of multiple myeloma.

Clinical ChemistryBiochemistry (or clinical chemistry) involves the analysis of bodily fluids using chemical tests. Techniques used include HPLC, chromatography, spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, immunochemical, electrophoresis, turbidometric / spectrophotometric assay, MRI and ISE analysis. Tests are often carried out on plasma or serum but urine (urinalysis) and fecal specimens are also processed.Multiple Myeloma
