Thank you to @MassGenBrigham for profiling this collaborative effort across @MGBneurosurgery, @MGHNeuroOnc, @MGHPathology to bring liquid biopsies to the bedside for CNS tumor diagnosis. @MGHNeuroSci @briansilberfund @NINDSfunding @BloodJournal
.@MassGenBrigham's new rapid genotyping test cuts brain tumor diagnosis time from 10 days to 2, avoiding invasive biopsies. It accurately identified tumors in 42% of cases with zero false positives. Learn how this is improving patient care. spklr.io/6019SsaS
