The transfer of mid-infrared spectral histopathology to the clinic will be possible provided that its application in clinical practice is simple. Rapid analysis formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue section thus a prerequisite. chemical dewaxing these samples before image acquisition used by majority studies contradiction with this principle. Fortunately, silico images acquired on FFPE...

Objectives: To determine the utility of the cell transfer technique (CTT) for the BRAF molecular testing on thyroid fine-needle aspirates (FNA). Methods: Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)based BRAF molecular testing was performed on tissues obtained through CTT from both airdried and ethanol-fixed direct smears of thyroid FNA, and then compared with the corresponding thyroidectomy formalin-fixed,...

objective the aim of this study was to compare the sensitivity and specificity of acid fast and auramine-rhodamine staining and multiplex pcr for the detection of mycobacterium tuberculosiscomplex and non tuberculosis mycobacteria on formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissues (ffpe) materials and methods forty cases of ffpe pleural and bronchial tissue with chronic granulomatous inflammation and ...

BACKGROUND The technique of direct immunoflourescence (IF) is essential in the accurate diagnosis of renal glomerular diseases. The optimal results are obtained when the procedure is done on fresh frozen tissue (IF-F). However, techniques are available for IF study on formalin fixed and paraffin embedded (FFPE) renal biopsy specimens with variable reported success rates. OBJECTIVES We evaluat...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have prognostic and therapeutic value for colorectal cancers RCs). Although formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues are available for biomarker studies, the stability of miRNAs in these tissues stored for long periods (more than 20 years) is unknown. The present effort involved analysis of 345 FFPE CRC tissues, stored for 6 to 28 years (1982-2004), for the expression ...

Sarcomas of soft tissue and bone are rare neoplasms that can be separated into a large number of different diagnostic entities. Over the years, a number of diagnostic markers have been developed that aid pathologists in reaching the appropriate diagnoses. Many of these markers are sarcoma-specific proteins that can be detected by immunohistochemistry in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) ...

Matrix assisted laser desorption ionisation mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI), was used to obtain images of lipids and metabolite distribution in formalin fixed embedded paraffin (FFPE) whole eye sections containing primary uveal melanomas (UM). Using this technique, it possible lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) type lipid that highlighted the tumour regions. Laser ablation inductively coupled ...

OBJECTIVES To determine the utility of the cell transfer technique (CTT) for BRAF molecular testing on thyroid fine-needle aspiration (FNA) specimens. METHODS Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based BRAF molecular testing was performed on tissues obtained through CTT from both air-dried and ethanol-fixed direct smears of thyroid FNA specimens and then compared with the corresponding thyroidecto...

The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) T790M mutation, a missense mutation from CpG cytosine to thymine, in non-small cell lung cancer is drug-resistant induced by the administration of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). It important detect this with high sensitivity, as effective therapies have been developed for patients mutation. We confirmed that at point methylated various tissues, an...
