Clinicians may soon be able to use the sweat from a fingerprint to determine whether a tuberculosis patient has taken the proper antibiotics. This new method aims to improve the treatment of ...

A fingerprint may soon be all a doctor needs to check whether tuberculosis patients are taking their antibiotics – thanks to a new study led by the University of Surrey. Scientists successfully ...

A new cancer “fingerprint” can improve early detection of potentially deadly tumours, say scientists. Changes are detectable with “near-perfect” accuracy by portable scanners in just a few hours, ...

A team of UK researchers has developed a pioneering blood test that could enable doctors to detect and monitor lung cancer in real time, which will help reduce diagnostic delays and improve patient ...

Flashes of infrared light can detect signs of cancer in a patient's blood, new research suggests. In a new study, scientists demonstrated that a test using infrared light can detect the difference ...

A UK research team has developed a pioneering blood test that could change the way lung cancer is detected and monitored.

UK researchers have developed a pioneering blood test using Fourier Transform Infrared microspectroscopy that can detect a single lung cancer cell circulating in the bloodstream. The technique ...
