"Imagine a blood test that detects the first signs of a brain tumor when it might be treated more easily.
A liquid biopsy for brain cancers is now one step closer to reality. The laboratory of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) biomedical engineer Daniel Heller, PhD, has developed an ultrasensitive diagnostic test that could potentially detect and classify different types of brain tumors with 98% accuracy. The technology combines artificial intelligence (AI) with sensors made of carbon nanotubes, tiny rod-like particles nearly 100,000 times smaller than the width of a human hair."
