A revolting area in the diagnosis of tumors and the follow-up of cancer patients is precision medicine, one area of which is the analysis of information obtained from body fluids by liquid biopsy. During the formation and progression of tumors, abnormal substances appear. We try to detect these abnormalities in blood and saliva from patients with head and neck cancer. Our goal is to demonstrate the presence of these abnormal circulating elements (circulating tumor cells, circulating tumor DNA, exosomes, etc.) at follow-up of patients, so that by recognizing early tumor recurrence, therapy can be modified as soon as possible.
