title: [Early detection of cancer--genetics or immunology?].
abstract: The earliest (in preclinical stages) detection of malignant tumor process is a key factor in successful treatment of cancer. What methods and approaches are most suitable for this purpose? The paper presents current understanding of the biological basis of the process of malignancy and analyzes the comparative opportunities and prospects for early detection of cancer using molecular genetics and immunochemical approaches.
