They looked for a disordered growth pattern in the tumor tissue.
The staging does not take into account the grade (biological behavior) of the tumor tissue.
In the new study, researchers examined the tumor tissue of 24 people with squamous-cell cancer.
The following tests may be done on the tumor tissue that is removed:
So before you have this treatment, your tumor tissue will be checked for certain gene changes (mutations).
Additional chemotherapy may be given if the tumor tissue removed contains cancer cells that are growing.
Thus shaken into action, the killer T cells are expected to begin destroying the altered tumor tissue.
The antigens also crop up on other types of tumor tissue, although with less regularity.
Similar values have been reported for tumour tissue.
His laboratory is developing techniques, which allow them to isolate endothelial cells from tumor tissue.
