A new blood test which uses microchip technology may offer doctors the opportunity to detect cancers earlier and also monitor cancer treatment.
When the CTC blood test was trialled on 116 cancer patients, including people with lung cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer, pancreatic cancer, and colon cancer, it spotted CTCs in the blood samples from 99% of the cancer patients.
The test detected CTCs even when there were only 5 CTCs in a milliliter of a patient's blood and found no CTCs in blood samples from 20 healthy people.
