Description

Zhiting Liu and co-authors published this review in 2024 on tiny fluid-chip sensors for finding cancer early. Cancer markers float in blood and other fluids long before scans can see a tumor. Chips that move drops through hair-thin channels can catch those marks fast and keenly. The team surveyed gains from 2018 to 2024 in how such sensors are built and read.

Fresh sensor types, nano add-ons, and new chip shapes each sharpened detection. The review maps the key markers for early finds and shows how the chips could slot into clinic work flows. It also weighs what blocks scale-up: making chips in bulk, keeping sensitivity in real samples, and proving worth in trials. A closing look pairs the chips with AI reading, which the authors see as the next leap.
