Detection of circulating tumor cell subpopulations in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC).

Detection of circulating tumor cell subpopulations in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC).

BACKGROUND:Since image based diagnostic tools fail to detect early metastasis in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) it is crucial to develop minimal invasive diagnostic methods. A promising approach is to identify and characterize circulating tumor cells (CTC) in the peripheral blood of H...
