HIGHLIGHT
The Unit plays a role as a referring center for lung cancer and neuroendocrine tumors.
Our activities
The Unit participates as referral center for the Italian Association of Medical Oncology (AIOM) and the Italian Society of Anatomic Pathology and Cytology (SIAPEC) in the national quality control system for molecular testing. Recommandations and guidelines for the detection of ALK rearrangement and the results of the Italian Quality Control Procedures for the detection of EGFR mutations in non small cell lung cancer have been published and discussed in International Symposia. The Unit can offer a wide test spectrum to detect patients with solid tumors candidate to targeted therapies.
