Abstract excerpt
Chromosomal translocations resulting in fusion genes represent important oncogenic drivers and potential therapeutic targets in rare leukemia subtypes. Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded trephines are frequently used in hematologic diagnostic tests and provide relevant access to leukemic cells for further studies, for example, phenotyping in bone marrow fibrosis. However, high-throughput molecular analysis of...
