摘要: Molecular testing in anatomic pathology is becoming increa-singly important, and molecular assays are used both diagnostically prognostically, particularly the workup of neoplasia for identification or subclassification certain infectious processes. Fresh frozen tissues optimal source DNA RNA to serve as template targeted analysis; however, archival formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue a frequently alternative clinical testing. Paraffin-embedded especially critical nucleic acid when pathological evaluation renders an unexpected diagnosis, it also provides advantage allowing analysis with correlation outcome.
