Abstract excerpt
The World Health Organization (WHO) classification of lympho-hemopoietic neoplasms is increasingly based on genetic criteria. Detection of tumor-associated primary genetic lesions is usually performed using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and/or fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH). This review focuses on alternative techniques for detecting genetic lesions in biopsy samples. Immunohistochemical...
