In a first, researchers generate a direct measurement of the interaction between immune cells and cancer cells from a patient’s biopsy
Researchers at Bar-Ilan University have unveiled a technology that promises to improve cancer treatment decisions based on a patient’s biopsy.
Plant-based isn’t just about burgers anymore
Plant-based materials give life to tiny soft robots that can potentially conduct medical procedures
AI used to predict future flares of ulcerative colitis activity
Ulcerative colitis assessment could be improved after new research shows that an artificial intelligence model could predict flare-ups and complications after reading biopsies.
Using CRISPR to detect cancer biomarkers
Only a few forms of cancer can currently be diagnosed using blood samples. Now, researchers reporting in ACS Sensors have developed an easy-to-use method that can detect small amounts of cancer-related molecules in exosomes in plasma and effectively distinguish between malignant and benign samples.
Single vs. multiple architectural distortion on digital breast tomosynthesis
According to ARRS’ American Journal of Roentgenology (AJR), for patients with multiple architectural distortion (AD) identified on digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT), biopsy of all areas may be warranted, given the variation of pathologic diagnoses across AD in individual patients.
DeepGI AI – A Thai Innovation for the Precision in Colorectal Polyp Detection
Chula Engineering and Chula Medicine co-invent an innovative device for a rapid gastrointestinal cancer detection that yields accurate results hoping to foster preventive medicine in gastrointestinal malignancy and reduce the number of cancer patients.
