Circulating Tumor Cells for Assessing Survival in Pancreatic Cancer Patients by Bruce Friedman Patient Expert Posted Thu 03 Jun 2010 12:00am I believe that a new chapter in the history of cancer diagnosis is now being written through the analysis of circulating tumor cells (CTSs) and their comparison... circulating tumour cells did not express the protein, at 85.5 and 310 days, respectively. It will come as no surprise that cancer patients with circulating tumor cells have a worse Read on »
Tumor cell differentiation by pathologystudent Posted Fri 31 Jul 2009 11:55am Here’s a good question that gets at a concept you should understand: tumor cell differentiation. Q. I’m doing a clinical research project, and I’m supposed to record the differentiation of resected tumors per the pathology reports.  A specific report says, ” cell carcinoma with squamous differentiation.”  Is this a ‘well-differentiated’ tumor, or how do you Read on »
Bone Drug Suppresses Wandering Tumor Cells In Breast Cancer Patients And May Reduce Metastatic Disease by Ed H. Doctor of Pharmacy Posted Thu 03 Jun 2010 5:23am .
