A new pathology tool created at Yale harnesses barcode technology and shows potential for use in cancer diagnoses. The technology, Patho-DBiT (pathology-compatible deterministic barcoding in tissue), was discussed in a new study published in the journal Cell.
Co-corresponding author Mina Xu, MD, professor of pathology and of laboratory medicine, a Yale Cancer Center (YCC) member, and the YSM director of hematopathology, shared her enthusiasm for the new tool.
“As a physician who has been diagnosing cancer, I was surprised by how much more I can see using this pathology tool,” said Xu. “I think this deep molecular dive is going to advance our understanding of tumor biology exponentially. I really look forward to delivering more precise and actionable diagnoses.”
