CTC phenotype analysis. Panels (a–c) show representative immunofluorescence images of CTCs with various marker phenotypes. The marker expression phenotypes shown are (a) CK+EpCAM−, (b) CK−EpCAM+, and (c) CK+EpCAM+. The scale bars indicate 10 μm. Cells were scanned at a magnification of 10×. Each staining image in a given row was taken from the same field of cells. (d) Population of CTCs with each phenotype among the CTCs detected by the CTC-FIND method in each cancer type. (e) Population of CTCs with each phenotype among the CTCs detected by the RareCyte method in each cancer type.
