FAP expression as a marker of malignant transformation enabling in vivo characterization in peripheral nerve sheath tumors: a multimodal and translational study

Key Points

• FAP expression indicates malignant transformation in peripheral nerve sheath tumors, impacting diagnosis.
• Key evidence shows enhanced tumor characterization through multimodal imaging techniques.
• The study utilizes a translational approach to link FAP expression with in vivo tumor behavior.
• These findings highlight FAP as a promising biomarker for assessing tumor malignancy in clinical settings.
