The circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in the blood allow the noninvasive analysis of metastatic
mechanisms, cancer diagnosis, prognosis, disease monitoring, and precise therapy through …

Effective acquirement of highly pure circulating tumor cells (CTCs) is very important for CTC-
related research. However, it is a great challenge since abundant white blood cells (WBCs) …

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs), shed from primary tumors and disseminated into peripheral
blood, are playing a major role in metastasis. Even after isolation of CTCs from blood, the …

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are cancer cells disseminated from a tumor into the
bloodstream. Their presence in patient blood samples has been associated with metastatic …

Micro/nanofluidics have been demonstrated as exciting avenues for efficient capture and in
situ analysis of tumor cells, which is of great importance for early tumor diagnosis, staging …

Background Due to the high transfer ability of cancer cell, cancer has been regarded as a
world-wide high mortality disease. Quantitative analysis of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) can …

The detection of rare circulating tumour cells (CTCs) in patients' blood is crucial for the early
diagnosis of cancer, highly precise cancer therapy and monitoring therapeutic outcomes in …

Conspectus Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are cancer cells that break away from either a
primary tumor or a metastatic site and circulate in the peripheral blood as the cellular origin …

Hematogenous metastasis is the main route of cancer spreading, causing majority death of
cancer patients. During this process, platelets in the blood are found increasingly essential …

The identification and analysis of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) is an important goal for the
development of noninvasive cancer diagnosis. Here we describe a chip-based method …
