Influence of number of arrayed samples on tissue microarray (TMA) data. (A) Influence of the number of samples analysed on interpretability of tumours (data from HER-2 immunohistochemistry; HercepTest, Dako). (B) Influence of the number of samples analysed on the percentage of positive tumours (data from HER-2 fluorescence in situ hybridisation; PathVysion, Vysis).
