What's this?

I saw a news story in the past 2 days about a company with a blood screen


test that would detect markers for 50 types of cancer. Finding a 'marker' would not mean "Yes, you have cancer", but it would tell you which type of cancer it was possibly detecting, and then you'd go in for that specific test.
