The video discusses Morton Fresh's bladder cancer diagnosis, highlighting the late detection due to a tumor burst. A new urine test developed by the University of Surrey could have detected the cancer earlier. This test identifies the EN 2 protein secreted by cancer cells and could be used for early screening, especially for high-risk groups like smokers. Early detection is crucial for better treatment outcomes. Bladder cancer affects over 10,000 people annually in the UK, with blood in urine as a common symptom. The new test could replace invasive monitoring methods, reducing NHS costs. Further trials are underway, with hopes for availability in two years.
