2 EuroFlow Consortium EuroFlow is a division of the European Scientific foundation for Laboratory Hemato Oncology (ESLHO). The EuroFlow Consortium consists of 20 diagnostic research groups, which are regarded as experts in the fields of flow cytometric and molecular diagnostics. Together the 20 participants have sufficient complementarity and congruence to cover all aspects of development, standardization, and validation of highly sensitive tests for diagnosis and follow-up. The main objective of the EuroFlow Consortium is the development and standardization of fast, accurate, and highly sensitive flow cytometric tests for diagnosis and prognostic (sub)classification of hematological malignancies as well as for evaluation of treatment effectiveness during follow-up. Furthermore, the EuroFlow Consortium has extended its innovation and standardization to several fields of Medical Immunology, such as primary immunodeficiencies and immune monitoring.
