Blood Test Detects Brain Tumours With 90% Accuracy, Scientists Announce Breakthrough

• A new blood test can detect brain tumours with up to 90% accuracy, a significant advancement in early diagnosis.
• Developed by British and Danish researchers, the test identifies two specific proteins linked to brain tumours.
• This 'liquid biopsy' approach offers a less invasive alternative to current methods like MRI scans or surgical biopsies.
• The test could enable early detection even before symptoms appear or tumours are visible on scans, improving survival rates.
• Researchers are also exploring similar blood tests for other cancers, including lung, breast, and bowel cancers.
