Interlaboratory Comparison of<b><i>HER-2</i></b>Oncogene Amplification as Detected by Chromogenic and Fluorescence<b><i>in situ</i></b>Hybridization
15 Jul 2004
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Chromogenic in situ hybridization (CISH) is a new modification of the fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) technique for detection of oncogene amplification in archival tumor samples. In CISH, the oncogene probe is detected using a peroxidase reaction, allowing use of transmitted light microscopy. We compared detection of HER-2/neu amplification by CISH with a Food and Drug Administration-approved...
