Pathology, genetics, and molecular biology of soft tissue tumors

Abstract

Pathology provides tissue diagnosis aiming in better treatment choices and eventually quality life for the patient. Though, to achieve a correct diagnosis requires a multidisciplinary approach. Nowadays, molecular analysis opens a new way in diagnosing and classifying soft tissue tumors. The impact of molecular characterization of soft tissue tumors is still growing and is now an integrated part in the diagnosis of these neoplasms.
