These waste molecules give a good indication of your health status  And what we\u2019ve found is that there are particular compounds in your urine that relate directly to either polyps or different chemicals that relate directly to colon cancer.  And it\u2019s these compounds that we\u2019re detecting in the urine to give us a positive signal as to whether you have polyps or colon cancer.  <\/em>\n<\/p>\n<p>\nReg Joseph says MTI\u2019s urine test could increase the current survival rate from 50 percent to over 90 percent and change treatment regimes.\n<\/p>\n<p> <b><br \/>\nREG JOSEPH:<\/b><em> If our  test is accepted  you would test to see whether you have polyps at the early stage using our test.
