Novel Noninvasive Diagnostic Test Developed for Colorectal Cancer
Researchers have developed a genetic test for colorectal cancer using a novel liquid “biopsy” of circulating tumor cells from whole blood, a rapid, easy-to-use technology developed to improve treatment, monitoring, and overall care of cancer patients. More...15 Mar 2015
Urine Test Predicts Acute Kidney Injury Prognosis
The severity of the acute kidney injury condition can range from minor loss of kidney function to complete kidney failure, and 50% to 60% of people who develop the condition die as a result and this figure has not changed in the last four decades. More...03 Mar 2015
Gene Test Matches Treatment to Patients with Cancer of Unknown Origin
Cancer of unknown origin is defined as a tumor from a patient presenting with metastatic carcinoma that did not unequivocally originate from a confirmed primary site on the basis of available diagnostic methods. More...02 Mar 2015
New PCR Assay Rapidly Diagnoses Myotonic Dystrophy Gene Targets
In a proof-of-principle study, scientists have developed a conventional-PCR diagnostic test that specifically identifies myotonic dystrophy type 1 gene targets from whole blood samples in 15 minutes, obviating the need for prior DNA purification or concentration. More...01 Mar 2015
