Intense Ultrasound Extracts Genetic Info for Less Invasive Cancer Biopsies #ASA186
At the University of Alberta, researchers explored how intense ultrasound can release biological indicators of disease from cells. These biomarkers can help identify different types of cancer and inform the subsequent therapy.
Data-processing tool could enable better early stage cancer detection
Cancers begin with abnormal changes in individual cells, and the ability to track the accumulation of mutations at the single-cell level can shed new light on the early stages of the disease
Would You Prefer a Mammogram, MRI, or Saliva on a Test Strip?
In JVSTB, researchers report successful results from a hand-held breast cancer screening device that can detect breast cancer biomarkers from a tiny sample of saliva.
Cancer researchers awarded $4.6 million to advance liquid biopsy test for early lung cancer detection
A team of investigators from the UCLA Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center and the UCLA School of Dentistry received a five-year $4.6 million grant from the National Cancer Institute to develop and improve liquid biopsy technologies for the early detection of lung cancer — the leading cause of cancer death in both men and women in the U.S.
Microbubble Macrophages Track Tumors #ASA184
At the 184th ASA Meeting, Ashley Alva of the Georgia Institute of Technology will describe how attaching microbubbles to macrophages, a type of white blood cell, can create high-resolution and sensitive tracking images useful for disease diagnosis. Because of the attached microbubbles, the cells sent back an echo when hit with ultrasound, which is nonionizing and noninvasive and has great depth of penetration. This allowed the team to visualize the macrophages in vivo with high resolution and sensitivity. Visualizing macrophages in vivo could also provide a powerful tool for understanding immune responses and monitoring therapeutic efficacy.
New research could lead to simple blood test for brain tumours
Bristol-led research, published in the journal The Royal Society Interface, involved the development of mathematical models to assess the current use of biomarkers in the detection of GBMs and how such biomarker-based strategies can be improved.
