Recent Developments with Biosensors in the Diagnosis of Cancer Diseases

Aim: Early diagnosis is very important in cancer diseases. Our aim in this study is to reveal the latest developments in the studies on the use of newly developed biosensors in the early diagnosis of cancer diseases. Material and methods: For this purpose, the results obtained in studies using different methods and materials in different types of cancer were evaluated. The sensitivity and specificity rates obtained with biosensors in the diagnosis of cancer were compared with the results obtained by conventional methods. Results: According to the results obtained in studies conducted with biosensors, the diagnosis of cancer diseases can be made with biosensors in a cost-effective way, in real-time, with much higher sensitivity, specificity and selectivity than conventional methods. Conclusion: According to the findings we obtained in our study, biosensors have opened a new era in the diagnosis of cancer. Early diagnosis of all kinds of cancer diseases will be possible with this method and mortality will be decreased to very low levels
