New $60 Blood Test Detects Lung Cancer Without Costly DNA Sequencing
A simple blood test that detects chemical changes in DNA identified more than 90% of stage 2-4 lung cancers in an early study, without relying on costly DNA sequencing. Researchers at Tel Aviv University and collaborating medical centers have developed a blood test for lung cancer that analyzes chemical patterns on fragments of DNA circulating [...]
Researchers at Tel Aviv University have developed a groundbreaking blood test that detects lung cancer in its early stages, with an accuracy rate exceeding 90%. The method analyzes chemical patterns in DNA fragments present in the blood, eliminating the need for expensive genetic sequencing. Development of the blood test: The test focuses on DNA methylation, a type of chemical marking that can influence gene activity without altering the DNA seq…
