Molecular Diagnostics of Gliomas
Wednesday, April 23, 2008 - 4:30 PM
Health Sciences Center, Room K-069
The recognition over the last decade that chromosome 1p and 19q codeletions in gliomas are highly associated with oligodendroglial histopathology, improved overall patient survival, and enhanced therapeutic responsiveness provided the impetus for the first widely utilized molecular diagnostic assay in clinical neuro-oncology. As one of the first neuropathologists to investigate the use of FISH for 1p/19q deletion testing and to make it clinically available, Dr. Perry has amassed extensive experience with this technique and will address the practical issues and most common questions posed by both patients and the physicians involved in their care. Additional biomarkers that are either in common use or clinically promising for the diagnostic workup of gliomas will also be discussed.
