Research led by Marsha Moses, PhD, of the Vascular Biology Program at Children's Hospital Boston, has broken new ground in the study of breast cancer. Their investigations prove that a woman’s risk of developing breast cancer can be detected much in advance just by few drops of her urine.
Breast Cancer - Causes, Risks, Symptoms, Diagnosis, Staging, Treatment, Prevention & Prognosis

The discoveries, licensed to the company Predictive Biosciences, may lead to simple "dipstick" tests for breast cancer, catching the disease at the earliest stages or spotting resurgence before it becomes a threat.
