eTumorType, An Algorithm of Discriminating Cancer Types for Circulating Tumor Cells or Cell-Free DNAs in Blood

Abstract excerpt

With the technology development on detecting circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and cell-free DNAs (cfDNAs) in blood, serum, and plasma, non-invasive diagnosis of cancer becomes promising. A few studies reported good correlations between signals from tumor tissues and CTCs or cfDNAs, making it possible to detect cancers using CTCs and cfDNAs. However, the detection cannot tell which cancer types the person has. To...
