Could a Simple Blood Test Diagnose Skin and Blood Cancers?

Tracking can start during infancy

Another exciting avenue for this type of technology is the ability to track blood samples starting from infancy. This way, doctors can monitor participant blood samples over the years to detect exactly when things start to change. They can enter all this incredibly enormous amount of valuable data into computer programs and use statistical analysis software to make sense of everything. This really makes the use of this type of technology much more feasible because people won't have to go over all this data by hand.

The possibility that we can use blood tests to diagnose people with cancer means that we may be one small but important step closer to winning the battle against cancer.
