A reserach team in Debrecen is working on the development of a rapid test which can diagnose cancer. According to the plans, the new test will be available in drug stores.The instant diagnostic test will be relatively cheap and easy to use: only a tiny stool sample will be needed. The new rapid test will measure the amount of a certain enzyme in the faeces.
Researchers say that with the help of their new diagnostic tool, breast cancer can be caught in a very early stage.
The researcher team in Debrecen is led by Péter Bay biochemist.
