<![CDATA[Urine-Based Biopsy Shows 97.8% Sensitivity in Prostate Cancer Detection]]>
Summary: A new urine test might save men from painful prostate biopsies. A recent study showed that a simple urine test found prostate cancer with 97.8% accuracy. Instead of looking for just one sign of cancer, this test uses smart computer programs (machine learning) to look at many complex patterns in the urine. This means doctors can find cancer early without putting patients through unnecessary and uncomfortable surgical procedures.
