Non-invasive Diagnostics Need of the Hour, Especially for Colorectal Cancer Screening
“The demand for in-vitro colorectal cancer screening testing has gone up over the past few years,” states a TMR analyst. “The key reason for this is the growing number of cancer cases being diagnosed across the world. Most conventional methods have been invasive and thus cause major discomfort to most patients. Technology has now advanced to a point where non-invasive diagnostic tools can be made easily available and have therefore been in a very high demand recently,” the analyst adds.
The use of non-invasive diagnostics for in-vitro colorectal cancer screening testing allows medical professionals to conduct tests a lot faster and with higher diagnostic accuracy. As for patients, these tools allow a much more comfortable and therefore compliant process that does not impose any dietary restrictions.
