Abstract excerpt

Previous studies focus on developing high sensitive PCR-related technologies to detect EGFR gene mutation in malignant pleural effusion (MPE) of non-small cell lung cancer patient (NSCLC) instead of improving the quality of clinical samples themselves. We therefore hypothesized that the enrichment of tumor cells in MPE could improve the quality of MPE for the more accurate detection of EGFR gene mutation in the...
