Microfluidic Isolation of Circulating Tumor Cell Clusters by Size and Asymmetry

22 May 2017

Abstract excerpt

Circulating tumor cell clusters (CTC clusters) are potent initiators of metastasis and potentially useful clinical markers for patients with cancer. Although there are numerous devices developed to isolate individual circulating tumor cells from blood, these devices are ineffective at capturing CTC clusters, incapable of separating clusters from single cells and/or cause cluster damage or dissociation during...
