NOW CANCER CAN BE TESTED BY SIMPLE BREATH TEST

Got cancer Simple breath test can tell

Device Detects Disease Even Before Tumours Become Visible In X-Rays London: Scientists working on a breath test to detect cancer said they were now able to identify different types of the disease,in research to be published on Wednesday.

Their preliminary results,to be printed in the British Journal of Cancer,showed the researchers sensors could distinguish whether a patient had lung,breast,bowel or prostate cancer,irrespective of age,gender or lifestyle. Previous research,conducted at the Technion Israel Institute of Technology in the northern port city of Haifa,found that they could largely distinguish between the breath of healthy patients and cancer sufferers.
