Before there
is OVCA, for the most part there are “lesions”.
Lesions basically are sections of abnormal tissue, often caused by
damage or disease. They are readily
detectable by existing techniques. As I
understand it, lesions are fairly common in a woman’s reproductive system, but
very few of them eventually lead to full-blown cancer. Now some smart people at Rochester University
have figured out how to detect the dangerous one, using ultrasound. This could be something of a game
changer. More good news! Read all about it here:

Great to hear about advances in detecting ovarian cancer. Kind of surprised this was not discovered before, but I know medical research is complicated. Thanks for keeping us informed, Myrl. Also, a new picture for me!
