In order to study the important factors for evaluating the prognosis of breast cancer patients, a fluorescence microscopy-assisted fluorescence in situ hybridization technique was proposed. Compared with other detection techniques, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) technology assisted by a fluorescence microscope has gradually gained favor in related fields due to its advantages of high detection specificity, high sensitivity, and strong experimental period. Combined with the basic overview of fluorescence microscopy and FISH technology, the advantages and application points of FISH technology assisted by fluorescence microscopy in the detection of the Her2 gene in breast cancer patients were studied and discussed. The results show that IHC can be used as the primary screening for HER2 gene status detection; IHC (2+) and IHC (3+) have false positives, which are related to chromosome 17 polysomy, so FISH should be done to confirm the diagnosis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
