Our role in the SEISMIC project
Within SEISMIC, they are studying the safety and feasibility of FUS-enhanced liquid biopsy. This approach could allow doctors to detect signs of a brain tumour through a simple blood test, instead of a more invasive procedure. The goal is to improve the detection of tumour biomarkers for a more accurate brain tumour diagnosis.
