Abstract

: New brightfield in-situ hybridization (BRISH) methods based on the cohybridization of probes to the HER2 gene and chromosome 17 centromere have been developed and provide a promising alternative to fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH). The aim of this correlation study was to test HER2 status in primary breast carcinomas with 2 BRISH methods, FISH, and 2 immunohistochemical assays using tissue microarray technology.
