In article number 1700449 , Kwan Hyi Lee and co‐workers describe an ion‐responsive urine sensor for analyzing minuscule amounts of prostate cancer biomarkers. Patients' untreated urine samples are loaded onto the sensor, and the resulting signals are proportional to the amount of the urine cancer biomarker within the patients' urine. The resulting signals are also confirmed to be proportional to the size of the tumor volume measured from patients' magnetic resonance images.
