The heterogeneity of a tumour Sample Clauses

The heterogeneity of a tumour. In addition to the above-described hallmarks of cancer the heterogeneity of a single cancer in a single patients is a further challenge in the research area. By collecting biological specimen from a tumour, one can question how representative a tiny piece of biomaterial that is taken for research is for the whole tumor to be analysed. Missing representation will produce non-reproducible data. If they are entered into a model, the output of the model cannot be correct. This is enhanced by different analytical methods if one collects data from different laboratories or if different analytical systems are used for molecular biological methods. The reproducibility of experiments and resulting data for input in models is of utmost importance in this context. Figure 2.6 highlights different areas of reproducibility.
