Liquid biopsy is considered a valid strategy to improve patients’ selection and treatment monitoring in clinical practice. Indeed Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) represent an important component of liquid biopsy and their clinical evaluation is becoming fundamental for a better patients’ stratification. Several techniques have been developed for CTCs isolation and enrichment and in this chapter we provide an updated overview of the main strategies that can be used.

Abstract
Liquid biopsy is considered a valid strategy to improve patients’ selection and treatment monitoring in clinical practice. Indeed Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) represent an important component of liquid biopsy and their clinical evaluation is becoming fundamental for a better patients’ stratification. Several techniques have been developed for CTCs isolation and enrichment and in this chapter we provide an updated overview of the main strategies that can be used.
