Canada has developed a laboratory chip that can measure the estrogen level in breast tissue. This development could be astronomical in the treatment of breast cancer. Women with breast cancer are known to have high levels of estrogen in the breast tissue and heretofore the only method of monitoring those levels are through painful biopsies and extensive lab work.
Keep praying people - they are getting there!
