Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma Classification Tied Up Nicely with a "String"

Abstract

Molecular classification of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a critical biologic, prognostic, and predictive distinction. Since the discovery of two molecular types of DLBCL in otherwise morphologically indistinguishable cases, numerous methodologies for making this distinction have been published. A method and technical platform may now be reaching consensus.
