Device detects early lung cancer via blood test
Summary: University of Queensland researchers have developed a device using a blood test to detect early-stage lung cancer. The device analyzes blood for specific biomarkers on extracellular vesicles, successfully differentiating between malignant and benign lung nodules in a study of 40 patients. This non-invasive technology aims to catch lung cancer early, potentially revolutionizing diagnosis and treatment. The research was published in Advanced Science.
