Bowel cancer prediction test for IBD patients 90% accurate
A new method for detecting bowel cancer is more than 90% accurate at predicting which higher-risk people will develop the disease, according to research. About 500,000 people in the UK live with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn's and ulcerative colitis.
Cancer breakthrough as new test has 90% accuracy predicting who is high risk
Cancer Research UK says the new approach should mean fewer people with inflammatory bowel disease will need to undergo surgery or regular colonoscopies.
New bowel cancer test has ‘90% accuracy’ at predicting disease in those at high risk – without invasive procedures
A NEW method for detecting bowel cancer is more than 90 per cent accurate at predicting which higher risk people will develop the disease, research has shown. People with inflammatory bowel
New test detects bowel cancer five years before it happens
Now, a study, funded by Cancer Research UK, has shown more than 90% accuracy in predicting bowel cancer risk in the next five years in a high-risk group of people with IBD. This could lead to a blood test which will inform doctors which IBD patients are most at risk of bowel cancer.
New bowel cancer detection method more than 90% accurate, research finds
The study, funded by Cancer Research UK, could lead to a blood test which will inform doctors which inflammatory bowel disease patients are most at risk of cancer.
A simple trick that could prevent more than 20,000 cases of bowel cancer
The study, funded by Cancer Research UK, found that having an additional 300 milligrams of calcium every day (on top of the 700mg recommended by the NHS) could lower the risk of bowel cancer by 17 per cent. Conveniently, a glass of milk contains around 300mg of calcium.
Algorithm study 90% accurate predicting bowel cancer
The method could be used to develop a blood test to identify inflammatory-bowel-disease patients most at risk.
New colorectal cancer prediction test is more than 90% accurate
A new DNA test developed in the UK can accurately predict whether high-risk patients will develop colorectal cancer in the five years. People with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) — which includes conditions like ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s — are up to four times more likely to get this type of cancer,
New bowel cancer test shows greater than 90% accuracy in high-risk patients
Experts hope to create a blood test to see which patients with inflammatory bowel disease are most at risk of bowel cancer.
