Significance of HER2 Low-Level Copy Gain in Barrett's Cancer: Implications for Fluorescence <i>In situ</i> Hybridization Testing in Tissues
1 Sept 2007
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: HER2 may be a relevant biomarker in Barrett's cancer. We compared three HER2 laboratory methods, standard fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), image-based three-dimensional FISH in thick (16 microm) sections, and immunohistochemistry, to predict patient outcome. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: Tissue microarray sections from 124 Barrett's cancer patients were analyzed by standard FISH on thin (4 microm)...
