Godt at opfølgningen efter kræft kommer til at have patienten i centrum og ikke blot være et kalenderstyret standardforløb!
Godt arbejde @ThereseJuul 👍🏻

BLODPRØVE KAN HJÆLPE MED PRIORITERING AF KRÆFTBEHANDLING
Kræft-DNA i blodet hos patienter med de meste aggressive kræftformer stiger meget hurtigt.
Blodprøver kan være et redskab til prioritering af operationskapacitet på kræftområdet.

📢 Our newest study on >800 CRC patients is now out 🧬
Read how:
1) Serial ctDNA = powerful recurrence predictor ⏳
2) Rapid ctDNA growth = detrimental to survival 📈
3) Personalized digital PCR = clinically practical for MRD analysis💡

Withdrew treatment today from two patients to ensure a dignified death: one 20 y old, one 98 y old. A surgeon must know when to operate, but even more important when NOT to operate. #womeninsurgery
