Default Cancer test results that lie.

Cancer test results that lie.

Here in Canada it is being investigated that there are plenty of
'false' cancer tests; both false negative and positive tests.

Not only false negative tests, that is a test that suggests you don't
have cancer, but more importantly false positive tests.

It appears that in the area of 'early detection' which would be
beneficial the tests are inacurrate, and if they don't reveal the
cancer, the delay in treatment can be very dangerous, as the cancer
can spread.

On the other hand, cancer tests that are false positive, 'entrap'
patients to undergo expensive and unneeded treatments.

Why ?

Well a health system that terminates healthy unborn children for non-
medically necessary reasons, really is only concerned about money....?

In Canada and the USA, both systems are in the profit business focused
on 'treatments' ....a somewhat 'parasitic' function between your
health and the incomes of most all doctors.

Sad, but true. By the way, Canada's Health Care system is not a true
socialized health care system (like in Italy) here in Canada as in the
United States the system is 'profit motivated'....while in the true
socialized system there is profit, but the motivation is to keep you
healthy.

The devil is in the details....0

I cannot agree with you more...Just take PSA for example. False
positives are quite common.
