The economic burden of cancer has been drastically increasing, rising to about $1.6 Trillion in 2010. Diagnosing cancer in early stages and effective treatment are the toughest challenges being faced by the healthcare industry. In many countries, the diagnosis and treatment are inaccessible due to a late-stage presentation.
