Biosensors and molecular technologies for cancer diagnostics

Contributor(s): Herold, Keith E [ed.] | Rasooly, Avraham [ed.]Material type: TextTextLanguage: English Series: Series in sensorsPublication details: Boca Raton : CRC Press, 2016. Description: xxiii, 820p. : ill. ; 27 cmISBN: 9781138198531Subject(s): Neoplasms -- diagnosis | Biosensing Techniques | Early Diagnosis | Immunoassay -- methods | Molecular Diagnostic Techniques | Tumor Markers, Biological | Cancer -- Diagnosis | Oncology and radiation therapyDDC classification: 616-006 Online resources: Reviews Summary: 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.
