Comparison of multitarget fluorescence in situ hybridization in urine with other noninvasive tests for detecting bladder cancer
24 Nov 2003
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: To present a single-centre study investigating aneuploidy at chromosomes 3, 7, 17 and 9p21 (e.g. loss at 9p21) using a multitarget fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) system, as identifying genetic alterations in urine specimens is a promising approach for the noninvasive detection of bladder cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Urine samples from 103 patients were evaluated, including those from 46...
