Concordance of Cytological Specimens with Histological Tissue for Detection of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Mutation in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Systematic Review

Conclusion: Cytological specimens have a high concordance rate in detectingEGFR mutations, when compared to HT. LBC has shown superior concordance rates compared to CS and CB. Cytological specimens should be considered as an additional and alternative source of diagnostic material forEGFR testing.Acta Cytologica
