Blood test that can detect lung cancer earlier

In order to prevent the lung cancer earlier, A new study reveals that the development of a blood test that can identify genetic mutations associated with non-small cell lung cancer within 72 hours.

The special news From this blood test it can detect the 94 percentage accuracy on lung cancer.

The treatment provided for NSCLC is usually determined using a lung biopsy, which involves removing a sample of tissue or fluid from the lungs for analysis. However, Pestano and colleagues note that this procedure is invasive and is not always necessary or accurate.

"For instance, approximately one fourth of patients with NSCLC are either not candidates for biopsy or have insufficient tissue samples recovered from the initial biopsy," note Pestano and colleagues. "This can limit the treating physicians' ability to fully diagnose the cancer genotype."

"Importantly as well, results from tissue-based testing can take weeks to obtain and can delay time to treatment," they added.
