Hello. I'm just so impressed. We are happy to share what we can. YES to all questions, Baylor Hospital, Dallas, TX
Q: Ruth had a needle biopsy of original large tumor, and very fortunately had a very good response to pre-operative TCH chemo to the point of only having scattered microscopic cells show positive post-surgery. Therefore I suspect there is no "tumour block" persay? I'm feeling a bit ignorant: Can lots extra slides be made from original needle biopsy speciman?
Kudos to you all in this important project!
