MicroRNAs Predict Disease Progression in Brain Tumors
A new method has been developed of predicting disease progression in glioblastoma patients who have undergone standard treatment and multimodal therapy of glioblastoma (GBM) reveals inter-individual variability in terms of treatment outcome. More...07 Jul 2016
Automated Extraction of FFPE Tissue for High-Risk HPV Testing
The testing for high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas is important for both prognostication and clinical management. Several testing platforms are available for HR-HPV; however, effective alternative automated approaches are needed. More...07 Jul 2016
Unsuspected Bacterial Link to Bile Duct Cancer Discovered
Bacteria in the bile duct have been identified as a potential risk factor in the development of bile duct cancer, or Cholangiocarcinoma, a rare but aggressive form of cancer with symptoms that do not present themselves at the early stages. More...06 Jul 2016
Circulating Cell-Free Nucleosomes Biomarkers Confirmed for Cancer Blood Tests
Studies have shown substantially improved overall survival among individuals screened for colorectal cancer (CRC), which is explained by diagnosis of early stages and prevention of CRC by endoscopic removal of precancerous lesions. More...30 Jun 2016
Liquid Biopsy Urine Test Detects Mutations In Lung Cancer
While lung cancer is one of the most aggressive malignancies, progress has been made in the advancement of therapeutic strategies against the disease and in particular, epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs). More...29 Jun 2016
Artificial Intelligence Achieves Near-Human Performance in Image Analysis
A research team has developed an artificial intelligence (AI) method that trains computers to interpret pathology images. In a recent test of the method developed to examine images of lymph nodes, human complemented with computer analyses together identified breast cancer with 99.5% accuracy. More...27 Jun 2016
