The capsule sponge test, developed by @RFitzgerald_lab, will be offered in certain high-street pharmacies as part of an NHS trial to prevent oesophageal cancer.
People with persistent heartburn or acid reflux will be offered a ‘sponge-on-a-string' test in select pharmacies in England for the first time. This new pilot will help prevent oesophageal cancer, and follows previous work in community diagnostic centres.

Published this week - @RFitzgerald_lab and collaborators demonstrate that the "pill on a string" could replace endoscopy in patient monitoring for signs of oesophageal cancer.
Just published in @TheLancet! We show that the capsule sponge improves Barrett's surveillance, helping prioritize high-risk patients for endoscopy & offering a more efficient, patient-friendly approach for low-risk individuals. #GITwitter #Earlydetection.
