Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) was used to evaluate tissue specimens from 16 seminomas in order to elucidate the pathogenesis of germ cell tumours in males. A characteristic pattern of losses and gains within the entire genomes was detected in 94% of the seminomas by comparing the ratio pro

To investigate the genomic imbalances associated with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), we have performed chromosome analysis by comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) on 51 tumors, including 25 primary and 26 recurrent tumors. The most common copy number increases occurred on chromosome arms 12p (59
Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) was used to evaluate and map genomic aberrations in 50 hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) from patients chronically infected with hepatitis B virus (HBV). CGH clearly detected nonrandom genomic imbalances. Losses were most prevalent on chromosome regions 4q (70%
