Does "Panning for diagnostic gold" sound a bit odd at first sight? Because the collocation of "Panning for diagnostic..." appears very odd and this feeling of oddness would drive to impress you before you read "gold" finally.
"Panning for gold of diagnosis" is perhaps much more natural since "panning for gold" is a long-standing traditional procedure in mining gold.
What do you think?
==================
Panning for diagnostic gold
Accurate and timely diagnosis and categorization of cancer are not always simple even under optimal conditions, and it can be near impossible in the developing world, where the necessary specialists and equipment may not be available and biopsy results can take months to return. To address this diagnostic bottleneck, Min et al. devised an automated image cytometry system named CytoPAN, which can correctly detect breast cancer and identify its subtype in 1 hour using samples obtained by fine needle aspiration, a less invasive technique than core biopsy. The system is relatively affordable and requires minimal training, which should decrease the barriers to access in low-resource areas.
