## Abstract The detection of disseminated tumor cells in peripheral blood from colorectal cancer patients by RT‐PCR could be an attractive method for selecting patients for adjuvant therapy. We here report on real‐time RT‐PCR assays (LightCycler) to quantitate potential mRNA markers. We investigate
## Abstract Adjuvant chemotherapy is not routinely recommended in patients with colorectal cancer stage UICC II. Some of these patients, however, develop recurrent disease. Therefore, valid prognostic criteria are needed to identify high‐risk patients who might benefit from adjuvant therapy. Dissem
