New Member M. Alexander Otto writes for Medscape about the Mayo Clinic and Exact Sciences developing an easy, noninvasive test to detect endometrial cancer in women suffering from abnormal vaginal bleeding. As many women know, often current endometrial sampling methods cause uncomfortable to excruciating discomfort. By just using a few biomarkers after a previous test lowered the amount, researchers suggest that the data is promising and very good in terms of diagnostic accuracy. Read more about the results and the science behind these tampon-based tests from M. Alexander Otto’s reporting.
