New home test makes bladder cancer diagnosis easier

New home test makes bladder cancer diagnosis easier

Diagnosing bladder cancer is getting much easier and faster for patients, as NHS hospitals start using a new home urine test. This new Galeas test replaces uncomfortable hospital procedures, letting people provide a DNA-based urine sample at home instead. Five hospitals have already adopted this non-invasive test, and at least 16 more trusts will join by year-end.
