The Evolving Role of Molecular Diagnostics in Pathology

The clinical implementation of molecular diagnostic technologies continues to expand across a wide variety of tumor types and has been shown to have utility for diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic implications. Genomic studies continue to expand our understanding of pathobiology with revelations that some differing tumor types are part of the same spectrum of disease; such is the case with esophageal adenocarcinoma and intestinal-type gastric adenocarcinomas of the proximal stomach (Stachler and Jin).
