Circulating tumor cells : advances in liquid biopsy technologies / Richard J. Cote, Evi Lianidou, editors.

It is well recognized that blood could be the optimal site for evaluating cancer, allowing easy and repeated access for determining prognosis, establishing molecular targets, evaluating the efficacy of therapy, detecting the earliest signs of recurrence, and even detecting cancer at its earliest and...
