摘要: Abstract The relation between oestrogen receptor status of primary breast cancer as determined immunocytochemically on fine-needle aspirates and the response to tamoxifen therapy has been assessed in 52 patients. proportion cells staining correlated well with likelihood response, which emphasises importance tumour heterogeneity.
