KRAS Mutation Test for Colorectal Cancer Diagnosis Approved
A real-time polymerase chain reaction test has been designed to identify the Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene mutations in tumor samples from metastatic colorectal cancer patients and aid clinicians in determining a therapeutic path for them. More...27 May 2015
Infant Stiff-Joint Syndromes Matched to Possible Genetic Origins
There are over 400 specific disorders that are, or can be, associated with multiple contractures in the newborn and a better understanding of disorders with contractures and their associated genetics is critical for accurate diagnosis and optimal treatment. More...25 May 2015
Pathologists Use Spatial Light Interference Microscopy to Predict Risk of Prostate Cancer Recurrence Prior to Biopsy or Surgery
A novel microscopy method that combines phase contrast microscopy with holography enables prediction of the likelihood of prostate cancer recurrence prior to biopsy or surgery. More...24 May 2015
Portable Device Could Test for Physical Property of Tumor Aggressiveness
A new polarimetric fiber stress sensor device has been developed for visco-elastic and biomimetic material analysis, and, as part of the emerging field of physical oncology, is being tested for measuring a tumor’s Young’s modulus—an elasticity-related measure recently linked to cancerous tumor aggressiveness.
