Blood analysis reveals cancer and appropriate treatment
Scientists confirmed in a recent study it has become possible to detect cancer in people through a simple examination of the blood, and this test can also detect the extent of spread of the disease the body at any stage.
To this day, watching the analyzes conducted for the patient grades malignant tumor through DNA, and take this kind of analysis and time-consuming, as it lacks the sensitivity and accurate information, but researchers at the University of stand form of medicine, developed this analysis; to show the size of the tumor accurately and how his response to the treatment and the extent of its evolution with time.
The works of modern analysis to detect all types of cancer common as breast cancer, lung, in addition to prostate cancer, according to a report published by the site «Arab», quoting the Daily Mail.
In general, patients who arrived at the advanced stages of cancer, they will have a small percentage of the DNA in the blood, so it will be difficult for the analysis to prove the existence of the disease.
The scientists have focused their research on patients who suffer from lung cancer, because this type of cancer in which the large molecules of the disease, and scientists are working on the application of this analysis on the different types of cancerous tumors that affect the body.
And this new analysis can determine whether some types of cancer develop resistance to a particular treatment, allowing physicians to review treatment and give him the right to target cells resistant to the drug, according to its development.
