The formula to calculate the Kappa Lambda Ratio (KLR) is:
KLR=KL×100
Where:
The Kappa Lambda Ratio is a measure used in medical diagnostics to assess the balance between kappa and lambda light chains in the blood. It is often used to diagnose and monitor certain conditions, such as multiple myeloma.
Consider an example where:
Using the formula to calculate the Kappa Lambda Ratio:
KLR=2.51.2×100≈208.33%
This means that the Kappa Lambda Ratio for this example is approximately 208.33%.
