High Cell-Free DNA Levels in Cerebrospinal Fluid Predict Leptomeningeal Seeding of Hematologic Malignancy

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The main difficulty when diagnosing leptomeningeal metastases (LMSs) is the low sensitivity of cytology. Cancer cells release cell-free DNA (cfDNA) during proliferation and apoptosis, and so we analyzed the cfDNA level as a biomarker for LMSs in hematologic malignancy. METHOD...
