CTC isolation techniques. Immunoaffinity utilizes EpCAM antibodies bound to (a) magnetic beads (CellSearch®); (b) microposts (CTC-chip); or (c) an in-vivo wire. Size-based techniques use (d) pore, slot filters or (e) microcrescents. Other techniques include (f) dielectrophoresis and (g) high speed laser scanning.
