NEW YORK, April 25 -- Columbia University's Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory issued the following news:
New research has revealed that the signature of metal ions present in urine samples is an accurate indicator of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), one of the deadliest types of cancer.
The discovery could signal the possibility of a new and completely noninvasive test for pancreatic cancer, of which PDAC is by far the most common form. Although it accounts for o . . .
