The staging of colorectal cancer currently depends on pathological examination of the surgical specimen and regional lymph nodes, accompanied by imaging tests such as computed tomography (CT) scanning. However, alternative molecular methods to detect circulating tumour cells in blood or bone marrow
## 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
## 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
