Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Sarcomas are rare, heterogeneous group of soft tissue and bone tumors. Precise diagnosis of specific subtypes is challenging using conventional methods. Herein, we review the role of next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology that is used for rapid sequencing of DNA and RNA. RECENT FINDINGS: Recent sarcoma specific studies recommend that molecular genetic testing should be added at diagnosis...
