[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread is absolutely chock full of fake news. TVS can absolutely spot ovarian cancer before it spreads to other organs. It just cannot distinguish between benign and malignant masses. Hence the need for a secondary blood test which is being developed. Sheesh https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3873201/[/quote] Not fake news and the blood test is only marginally helpful too. A positive just means you need even more testing and you could have cancer with a negative blood test. It is not indicative of cancer also not recommended as a reliable form of screening. But keep on telling us it is fake news https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diagnostics/17830-ca-125-blood-test[/quote]
