Targeted Next-Generation Sequencing of Liquid Biopsy Samples from Patients with NSCLC
Liquid biopsy tests have become an integral part of the molecular diagnosis of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We describe a new test panel that uses very low input (20 ng) of cell-free nucleic acids extracted from human plasma, which ...
