Micro Innovations Defining the New Frontiers in Liquid Biopsies

Microfluidic technologies were always at the forefront of innovations in liquid biopsies. There were several cornerstone microfluidic technologies that enabled sensitive and yet specific identification of blood-based biomarkers. The confluence of technology advancement and rapid developments in molecular characterization techniques pushed the boundaries of liquid biopsies thus enhancing the clinical utility of blood biopsies. Several such key enabling technologies will be presented. How isolation of circulating tumor cells and tumor derived vesicles using novel microfluidic technologies can enable precision diagnostics will be demonstrated with the example clinical case studies.
