    A SINGAPORE-based medtech startup that is looking to bring low-cost, simple-to-use cancer diagnostics tests to the masses, is set to revolutionise the global cancer diagnostics market that is projected to hit some US$168.6 billion in 2020.

    VolitionRx has developed a blood-based - therefore non-invasive - test platform that can potentially diagnose a wide range of cancers including colorectal and prostate, two of the most common cancers affecting men and women globally, The Business Times has learnt.
