Abstract
Flow cytometry was used as an additional measurement to monitor 59 untreated patients with bladder cancer. The findings indicate that tumours belonging to the same stage and grade can demonstrate different flow cytometric profiles. Using this technique, together with routine histological assessment, we were able to subclassify bladder tumours in respect of their progress. Flow cytometric profiles are recommended for additional information about the aggressiveness of the tumour and the potential response to treatment.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
