BackgroundCirculating tumor cells (CTCs) have historically been used for prognostication in oncology. We evaluate performance of liquid biopsy CTC assay as a diagnostic tool in suspected pancreaticobiliary cancers. The assay utilises functional enrichment of CTCs followed by immunofluorescent profiling of organ specific markers. MethodsMulticentric case control study was followed by a prospective observational study. Adult patients undergoing tissue sampling for suspected pancreaticobiliary can...
