The identification of specific tumor mRNA markers by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction might be a valuable diagnostic adjunct for the detection of breast cancer metastases in axillary sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs). In this study we have compared the diagnostic accuracy of an extensive hi
## Background: Stage i (t1-2nom0) adenocarcinoma of the pancreas is associated with a 5-year survival rate of 15-25%. despite apparently curative resection and pathologic staging indicating localized disease, these cancers recur. the authors hypothesized that there exists microscopic regional disea
We used a reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction method for squamous-cell carcinoma (SCC) antigen mRNA to detect circulating tumour cells in patients with carcinoma of the uterine cervix. The sensitivity of the method, as determined by cell spiking experiments, was 10 cultured A431 cells am
