Morphology of 9p21 homozygous deletion‐positive pleural mesothelioma cells analyzed using fluorescence in situ hybridization and virtual microscope system in effusion cytology

Abstract

These morphological differences and cutoff values are useful for cytological differentiation of mesothelioma cells from RMCs. In addition, the novel technique of a combination of virtual microscopy and FISH is introduced for tumor morphological analysis.
