DNA Abnormalities as Marker of Risk for Progression of Barrett's Esophagus to Adenocarcinoma: Image Cytometric DNA Analysis in Formalin-Fixed Tissues
27 Sept 2004
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: To examine DNA content abnormalities in patients with Barrett's esophagus (BE) who progress to esophageal adenocarcinoma, using image cytometric DNA analysis (ICDA) of formalin-fixed tissues. METHODS: Studies were performed on archived biopsies of BE patients' undergoing endoscopic surveillance before developing adenocarcinoma. A comparison group consisted of BE patients' free of cancer during a...
