Single-cell DNA cytofluorometry was performed on paraffin-embedded tissue of 140 patients with squamous cell carcinomas of the oral cavity. Half of the tumors (71 of 140) were DNA nondiploid. Well-differentiated carcinomas were more often DNA diploid than moderately well-differentiated ones (P <0.00

## Background: Previous studies have demonstrated that tumor thickness might influence prognosis in oral cancer, but the significant point at which outcome changes has varied from 1.5 mm to 6 mm. the clinical relevance of thickness remains unclear, and a reproducible prognostic "breakpoint" needs t
Background. Clinical evaluation of preneoplastic lesions of the oral cavity is difficult. Histopathologic grading of dysplasias shows large variability and does not give reliable information concerning the risk for progression to cancer. Methods. DNA image cytometry and p53 irnmunostaining were per
## Abstract DNA content was estimated in 705 breast carcinomas from patients with stage I or stage II disease undergoing mastectomy, to investigate whether it would predict the clinical course of the disease. The patients were then followed for up to 84 months during which time 166 of them develope
The characteristics of the deep invasive front area of squamous cell carcinomas may reflect turnout prognosis better than other parts of the turnout. Consequently, the authors have recently developed a simple malignancy grading system based solely on the characteristics of the deep invasive front ar
## Background: Prognostic indicators that could assist in a more precise selection of patients with small oral carcinomas for differentiated therapy would be valuable. a significant fraction of patients with stage i disease have a relatively poor prognosis despite the small size of the tumor, but i
