Why is early detection crucial in cancer treatment?
Early detection is crucial because it significantly improves the chances of successful treatment and survival. Cancers detected at an early stage are often more treatable and less likely to have spread to other parts of the body. Initiatives such as liquid biopsies and advanced imaging techniques are being developed to detect cancer at its earliest stages. Liquid biopsies, which analyze circulating tumor DNA in the blood, offer a non-invasive method for early detection and monitoring of cancer progression.
