New blood test spots cancer before scans. Chinese scientists have built a highly sensitive blood test that can detect tiny traces of lung cancer long before a tumour shows up on a scan. The convergence of three technologies, DNA nanotechnology, CRISPR, and quantum dots (how’s that for a 21st century cocktail) had made it possible to spot near-invisible warning signals in blood, opening the door to earlier diagnosis and faster treatment decisions. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/02/260216044002.htm?
