Harsh Fact
Cancer is a wide-spread disease and our
lifestyle has to be to blamed largely. However,
its treatment is equally painful. Now
technology intervention through wearable devices
can help doctors diagnose and treat cancer more
effectively.

Problem Faced
Tumors release more than 1,000 cancer cells into
the blood within a minute. In the current
method, cancer cells are captured from blood,
depending on the patients samples. Here, many
times, blood comes without cancer cells, even in
patients with advanced cancer.

How a wearable device can help
This very new device can continuously capture
cancer cells directly from the vein. It can
screen much larger volumes of a patient's
blood. This would further ensure to capture
more cancer cells from blood and provide better
information for planning treatments than those
from a conventional biopsy.

A Glimpse Of Wearable Device

• The device shrinks a machine that is typically
  the size of an oven down to something that
  could be worn on the wrist and connected to a
  vein in the arm.
• However, it would require some more time and
  research to be tried on humans.

No doubt the technology space is growing wider
and better. In this run, Techugo ensures to
keep a pace with this spectrum, and proffer the
most advanced technical solutions and
information to you.
