The utility of liquid biopsy-based methylation biomarkers for colorectal cancer detection
Holli A. Loomans-Kropp
Abstract:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most prevalent cancers and the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the United States. It is also one of the few cancers with established screening guidelines, however these methods have significant patient burden (e.g., time, invasive).

Methylation biomarkers are of particular interest, and these markers can b… Show more
