Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND/AIM: Detection of pancreatic cancer using small samples of the pancreas obtained by endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) remains a challenge. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the detection of KRAS mutations in cell-free DNA (cfDNA) extracted from supernatants of liquid-based fixed cytology (LBC) specimens obtained using EUS-FNA in solid pancreatic cancer can...
