Abstract

Breast cancer is responsible for the death of millions of women worldwide every year. It is widespread in the world and Iraq that become a genuine problem for public health. Several clinical, diagnostic and pathological techniques have been introduced to get early detection of breast tumors. The uses of current known tumors markers have many limitations. New technique for diagnosis of breast cancer involve detection of extracellular vesicles (EVs) exosomes and its phosphoproteins as a product of cancer cells which represent a non-invasive liquid biopsy that may replace the invasive surgical method.
