DNA Aneuploidy by Flow Cytometry Is an Independent Prognostic Factor in Gastric Cancer

In the present study the prognostic value of both DNA ploidy and the proliferative activity of tomour cells were studied in a series of 76 consecutive patients suffering from gastric tumours. DNA ploidy and the proliferative index (as measured by the percentage of S-phase cells) were determined by f...

description In the present study the prognostic value of both DNA ploidy and the proliferative activity of tomour cells were studied in a series of 76 consecutive patients suffering from gastric tumours. DNA ploidy and the proliferative index (as measured by the percentage of S-phase cells) were determined by flow cytometry using fresh tumour specimens.
