Detection of cancer before a clinical diagnosis could give patients and caregivers more time for intervention and may lead to better outcomes because tumors are more likely to be curable
It’s not a diagnosis, it’s detecting metabolites produced by cancerous cells.
A diagnosis is determining exactly what cancer it is, and how bad it is.
Early detection like this is fucking awesome though.
If it works and becomes available, I’ll be getting a regular screening. Lord only knows how many carcinogenic substances I’ve been exposed to
