Efficiency of Manual Scanning in Recovering Rare Cellular Events Identified by Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization: Simulation of the Detection of Fetal Cells in Maternal Blood
Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and manual scanning is a widely used strategy for retrieving rare cellular events such as fetal cells in maternal blood. In order to determine the efficiency of these techniques in detection of rare cells, slides of XX cells with predefined numbers (1–10) of...
