Emerging technologies for cancer detection and diagnosis are providing more and more advance warning of pathologies of clinical significance. Research devoted to cancers are revealing new ways of finding and treating these complex diseases. This volume reviews a broad array of new technologies for cancer detection and diagnosis. While there are several clinical books describing cancer diagnosis, and general molecular analytical technologies, these books are not focused on cancer detection and diagnosis. The aim of this book is to describe emerging cancer detection and diagnosis technologies.Key FeaturesPresents myriad new experimental cancer detection technologiesDescribes technology so the reader may conduct similar analysesOutlines clinical applications of technology for specific cancer and summarizes resultsDiscusses pitfalls and limitations, future trends and potential technological developments

Bridging the gap between research and clinical application, Biosensors and Molecular Technologies for Cancer Diagnostics explores the use of biosensors as effective alternatives to the current standard methods in cancer diagnosis and detection. It describes the major aspects involved in detecting and diagnosing cancer as well as the basic elements of biosensors and their applications in detection and diagnostics. The book addresses cancer molecular diagnostics, including genomic and proteomic approaches, from the perspective of biosensors and biodetection. It explains how to measure and understand molecular markers using biosensors and discusses the medical advantages of rapid and accurate cancer diagnostics. It also describes optical, electrochemical, and optomechanical biosensor technologies, with a focus on cancer analysis and the clinical utility of these technologies for cancer detection, diagnostics, prognostics, and treatment.Making biosensor technology more accessible to molecular biologists, oncologists, pathologists, and engineers, this volume advances the integration of this technology into mainstream clinical practice. Through its in-depth coverage of a range of biosensors, the book shows how they can play instrumental roles in the early molecular diagnosis of cancer.
