This study compared the use of conventional urine microscopy, the KOVA system, Neubauer hemacytometry, and the Yellow IRIS for the determination of white blood cell (WBC) and red blood cell (RBC) counts in urine samples. Both KOVA WBC and RBC counts correlated better with the IRIS counts than with c

## Background: Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (npc) has a high potential to develop distant metastasis after radiotherapy. cytokeratin 19 (ck-19) mrna has been frequently used as a marker in the detection of circulating tumor cells of epithelial origin, but has rarely been investigated in npc. this study
## Abstract Recently several noninvasive methods have been employed to detect circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in cancer patients. In this study, we have developed a highly sensitive, high‐throughput colorimetric membrane‐array method that was designed to detect a panel of mRNA markers including huma
