Orsi, and Nishant Ravikumar — from the College of Leeds and Leeds Instructing Hospitals NHS Belief, amongst others, have performed a large-scale examine which will rework how pathologists diagnose ovarian most cancers.

Ovarian tumors present a broad vary of morphological (i.e., microscopic) traits. 5 key subtypes — high-grade serous (HGSC), endometrioid (EC), clear cell (CCC), low-grade serous (LGSC), and mucinous (MC) — are collectively…
