% or amount of cCells in biopsy as nomogram factor
Categories: Cancer Cells
Question:
I am referring to the Parten Tables and cCells are Cancer Cells.
Response:
Hello All, A doc I interviewed today mentioned that the amount of cCells present in the biopsy cores is not factored into the nomogram score but should be. Perhaps he was just painting a rosy picture in my particular case. It seems like it should be a reasonable part of the success rate. Have you heard of this or does it seem valid to you? In my biopsy, 2 out of 10 cores were positive with "only" 2 millimeter and 3 millimeter cCell samples present. Which begs another question: how long are the cores? Thanks, WhiteSoxFan (Go Bears)
