Early Cancer Blood Test

Analytic methods have become so good that scientists succeeded in a trial to detect returning lung cancer from a blood test at a very early stage in which it was yet undetectable by other means. This has become possible by taking cells from the original cancer and then checking the blood whether it is coming back or not by comparing the cells to the original cancer cells. If the method can be wider applied steps against the returning cancer can be taken early on.
