Method and kit for discriminating between breast cancer and benign breast disease

摘要

A method and kit are related to discriminating between breast cancer and benign breast disease by the determination of the expression level of at least one target gene including a nucleic acid sequence selected from the nucleic acid sequences set forth in SEQ ID NOs: 1, 2 or 3, 4 and 5 or 6 to obtain an expression profile for the patient, and the comparison of the expression profile of the patient with expression profiles of target genes from patients previously clinically classified as breast cancer and expression profiles of target genes from patients previously clinically classified as benign breast disease.
