Comparison of Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH) and Dual-ISH (DISH) in the Determination of HER2 Status in Breast Cancer
25 Jan 2013
Abstract excerpt
The determination of HER2 amplification is critical to selecting appropriate patients for HER2 targeted therapy in breast cancer. Dual in situ hybridization (DISH), an alternative to fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and immunohistochemistry, is now available. To compare the FISH and DISH methods, we tested 251 samples enriched for common or difficult-to-assess HER2 anomalies. Seven samples failed DISH...
