3 Wiesner T, et al. Pathology Feb 2016;48(2): Where did it come from? How do I use to: Why Bother? Comparative Genomic Hybridization Studies the entire genome for multiple copy number aberrations Good discovery tool CGH: Disadvantages Misses balanced translocations and inversions Not allow histologic correlation 30-50% of the specimen needs to be pure tumor cells Tumor cells can be microdissected from the specimen CGH: Disadvantages Microdissected Not microdissected 3

4 Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization Correlation with histopathology Can identify many types of chromosomal abnormalities Gains Losses Translocations FISH: Disadvantages Only looks at the loci probed Limited to small number of colors Less reliable in ambiguous tumors Frequency of FP and FN vary by subtype Sensitivity 80-90s%, specificity 90s% Wippold F,et al. AJNR Am J Neuroradiol 2007;28: Gene Expression Profiling Determine genes expressed Uses mrna 23 gene expression signature 2017;26(7): Gene Expression Profile in Diagnosis Excluding the indeterminate scores Specificity 96.2% Sensitivity 93.9% Size of lesion at least 0.5 x 0.1 mm with a minimum of 10% of cell of interest Can be difficult to acquire the mrna Not ideal for DM or metastases 4
