Point-of-care biosensor systems for cancer diagnostics/prognostics [PDF]

open access: yesBiosensors and Bioelectronics, 2006
With the growing number of fatalities resulting from the 100 or so cancer-related diseases, new enabling tools are required to provide extensive molecular profiles of patients to guide the clinician in making viable diagnosis and prognosis. Unfortunately with cancer-related diseases, there is not one molecular marker that can provide sufficient ...
