Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Digital droplet PCR (ddPCR) is a relatively new technique used to detect molecular alterations with unprecedented precision and accuracy. It is particularly useful for detecting point mutations and copy number variation (CNV) in samples with small amounts of target DNA. This proof of principle study was conducted to see if ddPCR technology could be applied to cytology specimens to detect molecular...
