Precision Oncology: Overview of Diagnostic Technologies
Precision medicine has not only impacted drug development but also drug discovery and disease diagnosis, allowing scientists to use molecular characteristics to define cancers. Thanks to the recent advances, a variety of genomic and molecular analyses have now been developed to investigate tumors precisely.
Today, precision oncology encompasses newer technologies that have progressed:
1. from detecting mutations at a single site to multiple sites simultaneously,
2. from low-throughout to high-throughput sequencing, and
3. from multicell hybrid detection to single-cell precision detection.
In this feature, we put together an overview of current technologies that pervade the field.
