Doctors - Re: 'Ovarian Pap Test'

Doctors: I recall reading about an ovarian test now used in Europe -- this test is supposedly able to detect as early as stage 1 ovarian cancer. From what I recall, the test is a simple blood prick finger test. I think the article said that it is in the trial stage at Northwestern University Med School??? Sorry lol, this may or may not be accurate as I am writing off the top of my head -- don't even know if Northwestern has a Med School.
