title: Potential pathological application of immunocytochemical methods to the detection of micrometastases.
abstract: Immunocytochemical methods can be used to demonstrate tumor products and antigens at the cellular level. This approach facilitates the classification of tumors and the detection of small metastatic tumor foci in biopsy material from various sites including the bone marrow.
