flag Australian scientists create blood test to monitor brain tumor treatment, offering faster, less invasive alternative to MRIs.

flag A new blood test developed by Australian scientists detects tiny biological particles in the bloodstream to monitor brain tumor response to treatment, offering a faster, less invasive alternative to frequent MRIs. flag The test, which uses a phenotype analyzer chip to identify extracellular vesicles released by tumor cells, allows doctors to assess treatment effectiveness in real time with just a small blood sample. flag This could enable quicker adjustments to therapy, reduce patient burden, and improve outcomes for brain cancer patients, particularly those in regional areas. flag The technology, funded by the Mark Hughes Foundation and set for publication in Science Advances, represents a significant step toward personalized brain cancer care.
