New Technology May Enable Rapid Cancer Screening and Detection

Researchers at the University of Toronto's school of medicine have developed a device that will enable rapid cancer screening.

The device--a microchip--could can detect certain biomarkers associated with cancer in a matter of minutes.

This technology would detect in minutes what now takes hours.

Researchers hope that the innovation will lead to more frequent cancer screenings and hopefully higher overall levels of early detection.
