Researchers develop a 98% effective method using laser analysis to detect early-stage breast cancer.

Researchers at the University of Edinburgh have developed a new screening method that uses machine learning and laser analysis to detect the earliest stage of breast cancer with 98% effectiveness. This non-invasive technique, published in the Journal of Biophotonics, identifies subtle changes in blood plasma using Raman spectroscopy and machine learning. It can also distinguish between the four main breast cancer subtypes with over 90% accuracy, potentially leading to more personalized treatments.
