DNA flow cytometry and pathologic grading as prognostic guides in axillary lymph node-negative breast cancer.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Tumor volume in radical prostatectomies can be determined by several different techniques and appears to predict clinical progression. Greatest tumor dimension and area are easily obtained measures that are both correlated with tumor volume. The authors sought to determine whether greatest tumor dimension an...
