Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Precise and comprehensive analysis of neuroblastoma genetics is essential for accurate risk evaluation and only pangenomic/multilocus approaches fulfill the present-day requirements. We present the establishment and validation of the PCR-based multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) technique for neuroblastoma. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: A neuroblastoma-specific MLPA kit was designed by the...
