Utility of bronchoscopically obtained frozen cytology pellets for next-generation sequencing

Abstract Background Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is essential for lung cancer treatment. It is important to collect sufficient tissue specimens, but sometimes we cannot obtain large enough samples for NGS analysis. We investigated the yield of NGS analysis by frozen cytology pellets using an Onc...
