CSF Proteome Can Help Sharpen Diagnosis of CNS Lymphoma
Link ID 2453
Title CSF Proteome Can Help Sharpen Diagnosis of CNS Lymphoma
Url http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/568781?src=rss
Description Researchers have demonstrated for the first time that proteomic analysis of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) can yield biomarkers that show greater sensitivity in identifying cancer than CSF cytology does. This advance could lead to earlier and more accurate diagnosis in patients with lesions that are not amenable to brain biopsy, the investigators report in the January 1 issue of the Journal of Clinical Oncology.
