Cheap and easy test for prostate cancer?



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

This will be fantastic news assuming it works.

British scientists have moved a step closer to developing a simple urine test to identify men at risk of getting prostate cancer.

They have discovered that a protein found in urine is affected by a genetic change linked to the cancer.

More research was needed, but their work could lead to the development of a reliable test costing £5.50 ($8.82).
NOTE FROM JOHN: That would $8 in Britain.  Or $300 states in the states.
