Blood test for all cancers could be nearer than we think

A team of biologists believes it’s on the path to developing a new early diagnosis test for difference cancers using tiny particles in the blood known as exosomes they’ve discovered contain huge chunks of DNA, according to Wired.co.uk. The team, from The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Centre, says we should be able to sequence the material from a blood sample to identify any number of genetic mutations that indicate cancer is present. They believe it will open up a new field of research, considering that the exosome samples tested were found to contain genomic DNA spanning across all
