The study investigated the performance of the WID-qEC test in detecting uterine cancer in black women with abnormal bleeding
The authors investigated the ability of WID-qEC testing to detect endometrial and cervical cancer in black women in Ghana who presented with abnormal uterine bleeding.
The WID-qEC test successfully identified 100% of endometrial and cervical cancers in the study population. The ease of sample collection and low-cost, high-throughput PCR-based analysis makes the WID-qEC test a promising tool for detecting endometrial cancer in all women in low- and middle-income countries and in ethnic groups where sonography performance is known to be particularly poor.
