The chip helps detect early cancer cells

It is difficult to detect cancer cells - only one in a billion blood cells is cancer. So how do you isolate and predict the earliest cancer to cure?

This technique could be the key to a new way to treat cancer.

Researchers have developed a microscopic chip that uses a circular maze to separate cancer cells from the rest of the blood stream and detect that stem cells will spread the disease aggressively. .

This method uses the creativity of physics . The curves tend to push the larger cancer cells forward (the smaller cells usually cling to the walls), while the angles combine and put the white blood cells in the ideal position. .

And more importantly, this method is much faster than conventional methods, using signs and traps to gradually link cancer cells. Blood flows quickly, so you only wait a few minutes to identify the cancer. And if you need good results, just add another chip.

This technique could be the key to a new way to treat cancer . If you can detect cancer cells, you will be better aware of the cancer treatment that is being suspected.
