Abstract:BackgroundCytomorphological evaluation of tissue touch imprints during rapid on‐site evaluation or intraoperative pathology consultation has crucial value. However, literature on their utility for molecular testing is limited. In this study, we emphasize a further benefit of touch imprint slides and scrutinize our institutional experience on their use in molecular testing, specifically next generation sequencing (NGS).Materials and MethodsNGS‐based reports (2019–2023) of Koç University Hospital were retrospect… Show more
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.
