Screening for Mesothelioma

There is no universally agreed protocol for screening people who have been exposed to asbestos to see whether they are at risk to develop Mesothelioma.

However, there is some research that iindicates that the levels of the human gene serum osteopontin may be useful in helping doctors diagnose their patients in a less invasive manner.

It is useful in screening because it appears in victims of Mesothelioma at much higher levels than those of healthy indoviduals.

Mesothelioma & Asbestosis Mortalities Across the US: 1979-2001 (c/o EWG)

“We have seen first-hand how asbestos has wreaked havoc on Americans working in naval shipyards, automobile plants, and the construction industry. Most often this is through their employers’ conscious choice for profits over a worker's health.”

-- Joseph Patrick Williams, a trial attorney in the Asbestos Litigation department of Weitz & Luxenberg
