Comparison of diagnostic methods for the detection of a BRAF mutation in papillary thyroid cancer
8 Mar 2019
Abstract excerpt
The most common genetic alteration identified in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) encodes a valine to glutamic acid change at position 600 (V600E) in the BRAF proto‑oncoprotein. The most accurate and reliable method for detecting this BRAF mutation has not yet been determined. In the present study, the sensitivity, specificity and feasibility of diagnostic methods for BRAF mutations were assessed. BRAF mutational...
