July - Molecular detection of marker genes
Highly sensitive and specific amplification technologies enable targeted detection of molecular markers for diagnostic purposes. OSNA® (One Step Nucleic Acid Amplification) utilises RT-LAMP* to detect CK19 mRNA for the presence / absence of metastases in lymph nodes. Lymph node status is the most important prognostic factor in most cancer entities and important information for guiding treatment decisions.
