Researcher Develops Way to Track Single Circulating Tumor Cells

Ben Boulden

June 23, 2014 | Researchers from University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) and Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York have developed a new technological approach for tracking individual circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in the bloodstream, helping researchers identify the pathways of single cancer cells inside the body and possibly leading to the development of news ways to prevent the spread of cancer.
