Enriching Pathological Analysis of FFPE Tumor Samples With Spatial Transcriptomics

Enriching Pathological Analysis of FFPE Tumor Samples With Spatial Transcriptomics content piece image

Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples are a valuable resource for diagnosing prostate cancers. While assessing a tumor’s histologic patterns is a powerful prognostic predictor, there is a wealth of additional information contained within these samples that could strengthen diagnosis and guide therapeutic development for patients on a personalized basis. Properly stratifying disease severity and identifying the best therapeutic strategies could be aided by complementing traditional pathological assessment with spatial gene expression insights.
