Optimization of Tumor Dissection Procedures Leads to Measurable Improvement in the Quality of Molecular Testing.

Abstract excerpt

Molecular tests have an inherent limit of detection (LOD) and, therefore, require samples with sufficiently high percentages of neoplastic cells. Many laboratories use tissue dissection; however, optimal procedures for dissection and quality assurance measures have not been established. In this study, several modifications to tissue dissection procedures and workflow were introduced over 4 years. Each...
