Liquid Biopsy for Cancer
Kim, Seung Il / Kim, Jee Ye
Individual tumour molecular profiling and tacking dynamic evolution by treatment related selective pressure are crucial for clinical oncology. However, current tissue biopsy cannot represent spatial and temporal tumour heterogeneity due to sampling bias.
Liquid biopsy is an alternative way of tissue biopsy since it can represent comprehensive molecular signature from multiple distinct lesions and real time tracking is feasible by repeated lo...
