Blood Test Plus Ultrasound Enhances Liver Cancer Detection
While the incidence of most cancers is decreasing in the USA the incidence of liver cancer has increased by 2.7% a year over the last 10 years, which is estimated at about 40,700 new cases of liver cancer that will be diagnosed in the USA in 2018. More...20 Feb 2018
Molecular Test Adapted for Parkinson’s and DLB
Parkinson’s disease (PD), multiple system atrophy (MSA), dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) (or Lewy body dementia) are called α-synucleinopathies due to the abnormal accumulation of aggregates of a protein called α-synuclein (αSyn) in the brain. More...20 Feb 2018
Genomic Sequencing Augments Diagnosis of Lymphoid Cancer
Lymphoid cancers include diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL), follicular lymphoma (FL), and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). In recent years, several sequencing-based assays have been developed, but their clinical applicability and utility for patients with specific mutations still needs to be verified. More...19 Feb 2018
CTC Blood Test Detects Early Stage Colorectal Cancer
Colorectal cancer is among the most preventable cancers when detected early. Yet, it is the second leading cancer killer in the USA. Traditional methods like colonoscopies and stool-based tests are invasive or inconvenient and compliance with colorectal cancer screening remains low, leading to most colorectal cancers being detected in late stages, when survival rates are poor. More...13 Feb 2018
