Researchers reveal genetics of near healthy tissue help detect lung cancer
Updated : 5 months, 3 weeks ago IST
New research led by NYU Langone Health and its Perlmutter Cancer Centre suggested that rather than analyzing the tumours themselves, genetic data from seemingly healthy tissue close to lung tumours may be a better indicator of whether cancer will recur after treatment.
