Multiplexed Droplet Digital PCR Assays for the Simultaneous Screening of Major Genetic Alterations in Tumors of the Central Nervous System

Abstract excerpt

The increased integration of molecular alterations to define tumor type or grade in central nervous system (CNS) tumor classification brings new challenges for the pathologist to make the best use of a precious limited tissue specimen for molecular studies. Within the different methods available to identify gene alterations, the droplet digital PCR (dPCR) constitutes a rapid, cost-effective, and very sensitive...
