Tests
The determination of the ratio of cancer-derived DNA compared to total DNA in a tumor sample. The measurement may be expressed as a ratio, fraction or percentage.
Indicators
A tricyclic compound chemically related to tricyclic antidepressants (TCA) with anticonvulsant and analgesic properties. Carbamazepine exerts its anticonvulsant activity by reducing polysynaptic responses and blocking post-tetanic potentiation. Its analgesic activity is not understood; however, carbamazepine is commonly used to treat pain associated with trigeminal neuralgia.

Glossary Term
A study that compares two groups of people: those with the disease or condition under study (cases) and a very similar group of people who do not have the disease or condition (controls).

For example, one group may have been exposed to a particular substance that the other was not. Also called retrospective study.
