Date Published: 22-Dec-2009
Researchers at NUI Galway have made a significant cancer breakthrough.
They have identified a new blood test that can check how a woman with breast cancer is responding to treatment.
The test is also likely to act as an early warning system to alert doctors to any recurrence of the disease.
The Irish Times is reporting that the study results were presented at a breast cancer conference in the US, where it created major interest among leading scientists.
