Scientists recently developed a genetic test to detect breast cancer. It will help those women who are in the early stages of breast cancer. It will save them the trouble of undergoing chemotherapy.
Scientists invented the Oncotype DX test, which can help doctors determine the likelihood of breast cancer returning and if further intervention is needed. The test uses a small sample of breast tumour tissue and focuses on groups of genes, which can influence how a cancer is likely to grow and respond to treatment.
At present, the test is available in the US and American Society for Clinical Oncology and the National Comprehensive Cancer Network include it in their treatment guidelines for the early stage of breast cancer.
