Researchers have developed a groundbreaking blood test using Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) microspectroscopy to detect a single lung cancer cell.

A proof of concept study suggests an FT-IR microspectroscopy blood test can detect a single circulating tumour cell in a lung cancer patient, supporting future real time monitoring.

A team of researchers from three different institutions from the UK have come up with a technique to detect and monitor the progress of lung cancer.

Early detection of lung cancer remains challenging because cancer cells circulating in the blood are extremely rare ( ref1 ). A new research study now shows that a single lung cancer cell can be ...
