Biopsy of a biopsy: validation of immunoprofiling in gastric cancer biopsy tissue microarrays

Histopathology, 2002
Aims:  Tissue microarrays offer an efficient way of examining a large number of tumour cases on a single glass slide. A major concern, however, is tumour heterogeneity. Also, the use of tissue microarrays in biopsy material is unexplored. The purpose of the present study was to assess the possibility and validity of arraying three 0.6‐mm cores per case
