New urinary test able to screen for bladder cancer
Medical experts from Shanghai's Renji Hospital announced that a urine check can be used for bladder cancer screening after confirming that five genes in the urine can be used for developing a precise testing kit which can help be used for an early, non-invasive and convenient check to identify bladder cancer, monitor tumors and for individualized therapy.
The discovery was published in the Journal of Urology as a cover story, the hospital announced on Monday.
Bladder cancer is the most prevalent cancer in the urinary system, ranked as the fourth leading cancer among males. The current diagnostic and monitoring measure is cystoscopy, which is invasive and costly, restricting clinical promotion and use.
