Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) detach from primary or metastatic lesions and circulate in the
peripheral blood, which is considered to be the cause of distant metastases. CTC analysis in …

Significance Cutaneous melanoma (CM) has a high morbidity and mortality rate, but it can
be cured if the primary lesion is detected and treated at an early stage. Imaging techniques …

Tumor metastasis is responsible for the vast majority of cancer-associated morbidities and
mortalities. Recent studies have disclosed the higher metastatic potential of circulating tumor …

In recent years, researchers are paying the increasing attention to the development of
portable microfluidic diagnostic devices including microfluidic flow cytometry for the point‐of …

Cancer is a big threat to human life. Asia has about 60% of the global population and
accounts for half of global cancer incidence and mortality. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) …

Intratumoral heterogeneity, which is manifested in almost all of the hallmarks of cancer,
including the significantly altered metabolic profiles of cancer cells, represents a challenge …
