Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a biological detection instrument, in particular to a circulating tumor cell capture instrument and a capture staining method. Background technique
[0002] Tumor micrometastases originate from invading circulating tumor cells. Therefore, circulating tumor cells (circulating tumor cells, CTCs) may be a sign of distant metastasis of tumors. In recent years, with the development of sensitive molecular techniques, it has become possible to separate and count peripheral blood CTCs. In the early stage of the disease, CTCs may help to differentiate benign and malignant tumors, and predict and judge the risk of metastasis; in the advanced stage of the disease, CTCs may provide important prognostic information and help doctors monitor the effect of treatment; and CTCs may reflect tumor The characteristics can guide the formulation of treatment plan and can be used as the target of targeted therapy. There are many methods for the sepa...
