AIIMS doctors develop ₹100 kit to detect cervical cancer in two hours

Unlike conventional tests that require machines worth lakhs of rupees and take several days to deliver results, the new nanotechnology-based visual kit has been priced at under ₹100.

The innovation has been led by Dr Subhash Chandra Yadav, Additional Professor at the Electron and Microscope Facility, Department of Anatomy, along with Dr Neerja Bhatla, former Head of the Department of Gynecology, and researchers Jyoti Meena, Shikha Chaudhary, and Pranay Tanwar. The team said the kit has already been tested on 400 patients and has shown "100 per cent accuracy."
