The identification of biomarkers involves several steps:
Sample Collection: Biological samples such as blood, CSF, or tissue are collected. High-Throughput Screening: Techniques such as mass spectrometry and genomic sequencing are used to identify potential biomarkers. Validation: Potential biomarkers are validated through clinical studies to confirm their reliability. Implementation: Once validated, biomarkers are implemented in clinical practice for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment evaluation.
