Breast Tissue Microarrays

The CDP offers breast cancer tissue microarrays (TMAs) for investigations of marker prevalence associated with progression or prognosis of disease. The Progression tissue microarray is intended for researchers wishing to correlate a marker with staging information or with other markers. The Prognostic tissue microarray is designed to detect associations between tumor markers and clinical outcomes within three stages of breast cancer.
