About
Triantafyllia Ntouroupi is a pioneering researcher in the field of liquid biopsy and cancer diagnostics, with a primary focus on the detection and characterization of circulating tumor cells (CTCs). Her most notable contribution is the development of an automated, highly sensitive scanning fluorescence microscope method for identifying and enumerating CTCs in peripheral blood, a breakthrough that has garnered over 116 citations. This work, published in 2008, demonstrated the ability to detect CTCs in patients with prostate, colorectal, and ovarian cancers, while maintaining specificity against healthy controls. By advancing the automation and sensitivity of CTC detection, Ntouroupi’s research has significantly improved the potential for non-invasive cancer monitoring, early diagnosis, and personalized treatment strategies. Her method has become a foundational tool in the study of metastatic progression and treatment response. Through this innovative approach, she has helped pave the way for more accessible and precise liquid biopsy technologies, making a lasting impact on translational oncology and the future of cancer care.
