CLINICAL VALIDATION OF AN ULTRA HIGH-THROUGHPUT SPIRAL MICROFLUIDICS FOR THE DETECTION AND ENRICHMENT OF VIABLE CIRCULATING TUMOR CELLS.

Clinical validation of an ultra high-throughput spiral microfluidics for the detection and enrichment of viable circulating tumor cells.

BackgroundCirculating tumor cells (CTCs) are cancer cells that can be isolated via liquid biopsy from blood and can be phenotypically and genetically characterized to provide critical information for guiding cancer treatment.Current analysis of CTCs is hindered by the throughput, selectivity and specificity of devices or assays used in CTC detectio
