Furthermore, neither surface alteration nor structural loss affected any part of agglutinated tests preferentially, and therefore pathways of degradation were inconsistent across specimens.
Regardless of the imaging modality, scoring of detailed morphological or cellular phenotypes is often complicated by inconsistent orientation of specimen, mainly caused by their complex three-dimensional shape.
A detailed laboratory testing protocol was used, including a retest of specimens with inconsistent results.
Few specimens with inconsistent score were re-evaluated again by two pathologists until the agreement was reached.
Without considering the suspicious specimen (patient number 22), 9 out of 107 specimens showed inconsistent results between BMVC test and cytologic examination, which were 4 false positive specimens and 5 false negative specimens.
