Core Tip	Liquid biopsies are a novel method to help physicians in the early diagnosis and management of various cancer subtypes. Due to the east of performance, cost-effectiveness, and quick results associated with liquid biopsies, this technique will be integrated more into the treatment of aggressive cancer types such as cholangiocarcinoma and pancreatic cancers. More prospective clinical trials are needed to validate results on this tool.
