Bioimpedance Spectroscopy Preferred for Post-Breast Surgery Lymphedema Risk
Interim results from a study that compared bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) to the classical tape measure for assessing a woman’s risk for developing lymphedema after breast cancer surgery strongly suggested that BIS was the preferred method. More...04 Jun 2019
Novel Stress Biomarker Measurement Method Uses UV Range
A recent paper described a novel label-free method for quantitative detection of human performance “stress” biomarkers in different body fluids that is based on optical absorbance of biomarkers in the ultraviolet (UV) range of the spectrum. More...04 Jun 2019
Technology Developed to Capture Tumor Cells
The roles and clinical values circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are under intensive investigation, yet most studies are limited by technical challenges in the comprehensive enrichment of intact and viable CTCs with minimal white blood cell (WBC) contamination. More...28 May 2019
Biomarker Test Developed for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Myalgic encephalomyelitis, or chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), is a serious condition that may affect up to 2.5 million people in the USA. Symptoms include extreme tiredness, difficulty sleeping, trouble with thinking and remembering things, muscle pain and aches, a recurring sore throat, and tender lymph nodes. More...16 May 2019
