Heterogeneity in Gastric Cancer: From Pure Morphology to Molecular Classifications
15 Jun 2017
Abstract excerpt
Gastric cancer (GC) represents a global health concern. Despite advances in prevention, diagnosis, and therapy, GC is still the third leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide, with more than 720,000 estimated deaths in 2012.
