## Background: The diagnosis of pancreatic carcinoma is often associated with a poor prognosis, because most patients already have advanced disease. a highly sensitive assay to detect the progression of pancreatic carcinoma would be of significant clinical utility. the authors developed multiple tu

## BACKGROUND. Using a reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay, the authors previously determined the expression of MN/CA9 mRNA in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and its absence in benign renal tissue. In the current study, the utility of an enhanced RT-PCR assay in the detectio
Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the benefits achievable by Amplicor polymerase chain reaction (PCR) (F. Hoffmann-LaRoche Ltd., Basel, Switzerland) with urine specimens in addition to PACE 2 (Gen-Probe, Inc., San Diego, California) assay with cervical swab specimens in the diagno
