Genomic Characterization and Comparison of Multi-Regional and Pooled Tumor Biopsy Specimens.
A single tumor biopsy specimen is typically used in cancer genome studies. However, it may represent incompletely the underlying mutational and transcriptional profiles of tumor biology. Multi-regional biopsies have the advantage of increased sensitivity for genomic profiling, but they are not cost-...
