A systematic analysis of commonly used antibodies in cancer diagnostics.

abstract：AIMS:There have been several cell kinetic studies of thymoma, but the effectiveness of using Ki67 antibody as a tool to measure proliferative activity in this tumour was rarely evaluated. We carried out an immuno-histochemical study using this antibody to assess the clinicopathological correlation and the prognostic si...
