A new urine-based test for early detection of cervical cancer virus proteins shows promise in making cervical cancer screening more accessible and less invasive.
In a study, published in the open access journal Microorganisms, researchers from Waseda University, in a multi-institution collaboration, investigate whether a super-sensitive test can accurately measure proteins linked to human papillomavirus (HPV).
This non-invasive urine test for detecting HPV-related proteins is a step towards increasing cervical cancer screening rates worldwide.
