Abstract excerpt
Sequencing of tumor DNA to detect genetic aberrations is becoming increasingly important, not only to refine cancer diagnoses but also to predict response to targeted treatments. Next-generation sequencing is widely adopted in diagnostics for the analyses of DNA extracted from routinely processed formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue, fine-needle aspirates, or cytologic smears. PCR-based enrichment strategies...
