Abstract excerpt
While most melanomas can be distinguished from nevi by histopathology, the histology is ambiguous for some melanocytic tumors, contributing to diagnostic uncertainty. Therefore molecular assays, including FISH or SNP array, and more recently a gene expression test (myPath, Myriad Genetics) have been proposed to aid in the work-up of ambiguous tumors. Two hundred and sixty-eight prospectively submitted cases were...
