 | TEST OFFERS NEW HOPE FOR LEUKAEMIA CHILDREN |
| |  | | A life-saving test which gives advance warning of leukaemia relapse in children is the centrepiece of a major new trial which gets underway this month. Piloted for the last year in several centres across the UK, the test ensures the accurate detection of minute numbers of leukaemia cells (minimal residual disease - or MRD) that remain after treatment but cannot be detected under the microscope. | | Release date: 1st October 2003 |  |
