Quantitative in situ measurement of estrogen receptor mRNA predicts response to tamoxifen.

<h4>Purpose</h4>Quantification of mRNA has historically been done by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Recently, a robust method of detection of mRNA utilizing in situ hybridization has been described that is linear and shows high specificity with low background....
