New urine test can accurately detect womb cancer – Health Europa
A new and non-invasive urine test can accurately detect womb cancer.
The test is accurate at detecting womb cancer by looking at a urine or vaginal sample with a microscope according to a proof-of-concept study by University of Manchester and Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT) scientists.
Womb cancer is the sixth most common cancer affecting women, with approximately 382,000 new diagnoses and 89,900 deaths from the disease in 2018 globally. It has a five-year survival rate of just 15%. and 20% of women present with advanced disease.
