A reverse transcriptase‐polymerase chain reaction assay in the diagnosis of soft tissue sarcomas [PDF]
Cancer, 2000 Many types of sarcomas are characterized by specific chromosomal translocations that result in the production of novel chimeric genes. Detection of these fusion genes could be a sensitive molecular diagnostic assay. However, to the authors' knowledge there have been few systemic comparisons between the current histopathologic diagnosis and the presence
