Description
Hui-Min Liu, Juan Huang, Jing Wang, and Rong Shi write a letter to the editor in 2026 on urine markers for cancer detection. They respond to a review that surveyed how markers in urine could flag cancer without invasive tests. As a colorectal cancer researcher, the lead author weighs the review's strengths and adds points for future work.
The letter praises the review's rigor and notes two markers with promise for early diagnosis. It urges testing in larger and more varied populations, across regions and ethnic groups. It also argues that markers should be tracked after treatment to watch for recurrence, joined with scans and clinical data in risk models.
