Based on the available search results, there isn't specific information about Foundation Medicine's circulating tumor cell count testing. However, for lymphoma diagnosis and monitoring, several other blood-based tests are commonly used, including complete blood counts (CBC) with differential analysis, which measures different types of blood cells and can detect abnormal cells.

Flow cytometry is another important blood test that can identify specific types of cancer cells in blood samples by looking for certain cellular markers. This test is particularly useful for lymphoma diagnosis and monitoring. If you're interested in blood-based testing for lymphoma, it's recommended to discuss with your healthcare provider about which tests would be most appropriate for your specific situation. They may recommend various combinations of blood tests, imaging studies, and possibly biopsies to properly monitor your condition.
