El estudio del ADN circulante, por medio de una muestra de sangre, abre nuevas perspectivas en el diagnóstico oncológico, aunque se exploran sus aplicaciones en el infarto del miocardio, el ictus y otras afecciones. Un editorial habla sobre su introducción en el laboratorio clínico: Jiménez W. Biopsia líquida: un reto para el laboratorio de diagnóstico clínico. Avances en Medicina de Laboratorio, 2020; DOI: https://doi.org/10.1515/almed-2020-0036.
