New Nanotechnology-Based Blood Test for Predicting Prostate Cancer Helps Avoid Painful Biopsies
Alberta Scientists have developed a new diagnostic that will allow men to avoid painful biopsies to check for aggressive prostate cancer. The test includes a unique nanotechnology system to make the diagnostic using just a single drop of blood, and is considerably more accurate than existing screening techniques.
It was discovered that EV-FPS precisely identified men with aggressive prostate cancer 40% more accurately than the most common test used today - Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) blood test.
