Comparative analysis of IHC, AMRS-PCR, and ddPCR for BRAF V600E mutation detection in papillary thyroid carcinoma

AMRS-PCR provides greater sensitivity and specificity than IHC for detecting BRAF V600E mutations and is appropriate for routine molecular testing. ddPCR offers excellent sensitivity for low-frequency mutations and is valuable for resolving discordant results. A multimodal testing strategy may improve detection accuracy and support personalized management of patients with PTC.

Abstract

AMRS-PCR provides greater sensitivity and specificity than IHC for detecting BRAF V600E mutations and is appropriate for routine molecular testing. ddPCR offers excellent sensitivity for low-frequency mutations and is valuable for resolving discordant results. A multimodal testing strategy may improve detection accuracy and support personalized management of patients with PTC.
