10A new study that looks at cell fragments of DNA in the blood that uses AI technology, just published August 20 in Nature, is able to catch early lung cancer at a rate of 94%. Stage 3/4 at 96%.
Larger clinical trials are under way. Titled:
"Detection and characterization of lung cancer using cell-free DNA fragmentomes"

Thanks, Leo. Exciting stuff.
Apart from the essential prevention work you and other professionals do, this is the kind of thing we're always hoping will emerge from research - reliable earlier detection with lower risks and costs. -
