Utility of AMOY polymerase chain reaction panel in detecting non-small cell lung cancer using pleural cell block

Pleural effusion cell blocks are a practical and reliable alternative for molecular testing of advanced NSCLC when biopsy is not feasible. The high sensitivity of the AmoyDx PLC panel even for specimens with low tumor cell content underscores its potential clinical utility.

Abstract

Pleural effusion cell blocks are a practical and reliable alternative for molecular testing of advanced NSCLC when biopsy is not feasible. The high sensitivity of the AmoyDx PLC panel even for specimens with low tumor cell content underscores its potential clinical utility.
