    Abstract

    The Met gene, which encodes a receptor tyrosine kinase, is crucial in cancer cell proliferation and survival. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is vital for assessing MET-gene amplification in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Manual FISH assays are time-consuming and results are critical for treatment decision; automation could reduce turnaraound time. This study evaluates the potentional benefits of the automated FISH-system, Oncore Pro X (biocare Medical USA), by assessing factors including results, turnaround time, and cost.
