Abstract:
Tumor specimens have a great role in basic and clinical translational researches on cancer, especially in the era of precision medicine. Thus the standardization of cancer biobank is of high importance. The establishment and maintenance of cancer biobank require comprehensive quality management, so as to provide high quality service for basic and clinical researches. At present, sample-oriented collection and management, and clinical and pathological data annotation are the main focuses of biobank standardization in China.
