Bizonyos tumorok, mint pl. mieloma multiplex és néhány limfóma súlyosságának és prognózisának megállapításában nyújt segítséget.
Amikor mieloma multiplex, vagy más daganatos betegség diagnózisa áll fenn; illetve szükség lehet a vizsgálatra a betegség aktivitásának és a kezelés eredményességének nyomon követésében.
A kar könyökhajlati vénájából vett vér; néha 24 órás gyűjtött vizelet, ritkán likvor (agy-gerincvelői folyadék).
Nincs szükség előkészületre.
