Diagnostic method of pancreas cancer based on the determination of mutations of K-RAS gene

摘要

The present invention is directed to a method of molecular biology and a kit for the diagnosis of carcinoma of the pancreas on cytological material. The method of the present invention provides the evaluation of genetic mutations on the Kras gene by pyrosequencing. The application of this invention enables to determine with greater accuracy and diagnostic rapidity the singling out of patients suffering from pancreatic carcinoma.
