In the realm of lung cancer detection, a novel technology from MIT is making waves, not with grandiose claims, but with its practical, life-saving potential. This tech, based on inhalable nanoparticle sensors, could drastically simplify the process of diagnosing lung cancer – think inhaling nanoparticles and then taking a urine test. Simple, right? At the heart of this innovation lies a type of nanosensor, deliverable via an inhaler or a nebulizer. When these sensors encounter specific proteins linked to lung cancer in the lungs, they trigger a signal. This signal eventually finds its way into the urine, where it’s detectable … Continue reading MIT Develops Inhalable Nanosensors for Early Lung Cancer Detection via Urine Test
