    Tumor heterogeneity

    Tumor heterogeneity describes differences between tumors. Tumor heterogeneity can refer to differences between (1) tumors in different patients, (2) cancer cells in an individual patient's tumor, or (3) a primary and metastatic tumor. Understanding the heterogeneity of a tumor can facilitate diagnosis and treatment.
