Genetic Profiling Differentiates Second Primary Tumors from Metastases in Adult Metachronous Soft Tissue Sarcoma
Figure 1
Unsupervised hierarchical cluster analysis of all 30 soft tissue sarcomas from
13 patients. The analysis was based on the ~17 000 clones that survived
the preprocessing filters, and close clustering of the metachronous STS was demonstrated
in 5 patients (case 1, 2, 6, 9, and 12 marked with different colours), whereas
the STS from the remaining 8 patients were scatter in the analysis. Clustering
was done using the TMeV application from the microarray software suit.
