Currently, the vast majority of patients are detected through a visual exam and/or are symptomatic, at which point they are likely late stage. As a result, oral cancer often goes undetected to the point of metastasizing.ErlySign's solution is an easy, accurate, affordable, and painless way for early detection of Oral Cancer. The kit gives detailed instructions starting with saliva collection to shipping of the sample for diagnosis.
