Tumor Heterogeneity: Mechanisms and Bases for a Reliable Application of Molecular Marker Design
13 Feb 2012
Abstract excerpt
Tumor heterogeneity is a confusing finding in the assessment of neoplasms, potentially resulting in inaccurate diagnostic, prognostic and predictive tests. This tumor heterogeneity is not always a random and unpredictable phenomenon, whose knowledge helps designing better tests. The biologic reasons for this intratumoral heterogeneity would then be important to understand both the natural history of neoplasms and...
