Re: Ctc?
Whatever will be more useful as an adjunct to traditional methods for following tumor response, such as x-rays, blood tests, CTs, MRIs, history, physical exam, etc. However, in regards to drug selection, analysis of a relatively small number of isolated cancer cells cannot yield the same quality information as subjecting living cells to chemotherapeutic agents, begging the question of whether or not it can accurately predict which drugs will work and which will not.
