A viable circulating tumor cell isolation device with high retrieval efficiency using a reversibly deformable membrane barrier

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) contain prognostic information of the tumor, since they shed from the primary tumor and invade into the bloodstream. Therefore, the viable isolation is necessary for a consequent analysis of CTCs. Here, we present a device for the viable isolation and efficient retriev...
