Liquid Biopsies: Revolutionizing Cancer Treatment
Liquid biopsies, blood tests detecting tumor traces, are transforming cancer treatment by enabling earlier detection and personalized therapies; however, high costs and complex analysis limit widespread adoption in Spain, where their use is most advanced in lung, colon, and rectal cancers.
