Early markers of breast cancer in nipple aspirate fluid
Nipple aspirate fluid (NAF) refers to the small amount of secretion that is found in breast ducts/lobules of most non-lactating women. This fluid can be collected repeatedly and non-invasively via the nipple using a modified breast pump, and therefore, it is considered to be a potential source for …
