Abstract

Breast cancer is a highly heterogeneous malignancy. The continuous development and progress of molecular diagnostic technology has been applied in the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer, which highlights the great potential of individualized precision diagnosis and treatment. Molecular diagnosis relies on experimental techniques of molecular biology, and plays an important role in the study of tumor pathogenesis, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis. Early detection, early diagnosis, early treatment and individualized diagnosis and treatment plan can effectively reduce the mortality of breast cancer patients and play an important role in improving patient prognosis. Molecular diagnosis has become an indispensable part of cancer diagnosis, prognosis and treatment prediction. With the rapid development of molecular biology, the molecular diagnosis of breast cancer has reached a new level.
