Twenty Years On: RECIST as a Biomarker of Response in Solid Tumours an EORTC Imaging Group - ESOI Joint Paper.
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2022-01-10)
Response evaluation criteria in solid tumours (RECIST) v1.1 are currently the reference standard for evaluating efficacy of therapies in patients with solid tumours who are included in clinical trials, and they are widely ...
An Overview of X-ray Photon Counting Spectral Imaging (x-CSI) with a Focus on Gold Nanoparticle Quantification in Oncology.
(MDPI, 2021-12-31)
This review article offers an overview of the differences between traditional energy integrating (EI) X-ray imaging and the new technique of X-ray photon counting spectral imaging (x-CSI). The review is motivated by the ...
New Fully Automated Preparation of High Apparent Molar Activity 68Ga-FAPI-46 on a Trasis AiO Platform.
(MDPI, 2022-01-20)
A large number of applications for fibroblast activation protein inhibitors (FAPI)-based PET agents have been evaluated in conditions ranging from cancer to non-malignant diseases such as myocardial infarction. In particular, ...
MR-guided radiotherapy for prostate cancer: state of the art and future perspectives.
(BRITISH INST RADIOLOGY, 2022-03-01)
Advances in radiotherapy technology have increased precision of treatment delivery and in some tumour types, improved cure rates and decreased side effects. A new generation of radiotherapy machines, hybrids of an MRI ...
Multiparametric bone MRI can improve CT-guided bone biopsy target selection in cancer patients and increase diagnostic yield and feasibility of next-generation tumour sequencing.
(SPRINGER, 2022-01-29)
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate whether multiparametric bone MRI (mpBMRI) utilising a combination of DWI signal, ADC and relative fat-fraction (rFF) can identify bone metastases, which provide high diagnostic biopsy yield and ...
Genetic Variation in ABCC4 and CFTR and Acute Pancreatitis during Treatment of Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.
(MDPI, 2021-10-20)
BACKGROUND: Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a serious, mechanistically not entirely resolved side effect of L-asparaginase-containing treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). To find new candidate variations for AP, ...
Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification Assay for Detecting Tumor Markers and Human Papillomavirus: Accuracy and Supplemental Diagnostic Value to Endovaginal MRI in Cervical Cancer.
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2021-11-01)
OBJECTIVE: To establish the sensitivity and specificity of a human papillomavirus (HPV) and tumor marker DNA/mRNA assay for detecting cervical cancer that is transferrable to a Lab-on-a-chip platform and determine its ...
Targeted therapy for LIMD1-deficient non-small cell lung cancer subtypes.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2021-11-11)
An early event in lung oncogenesis is loss of the tumour suppressor gene LIMD1 (LIM domains containing 1); this encodes a scaffold protein, which suppresses tumorigenesis via a number of different mechanisms. Approximately ...
Effect of antibiotic stewardship interventions in primary care on antimicrobial resistance of Escherichia coli bacteraemia in England (2013-18): a quasi-experimental, ecological, data linkage study.
(Elsevier BV, 2021-12-01)
BACKGROUND: Antimicrobial resistance is a major global health concern, driven by overuse of antibiotics. We aimed to assess the effectiveness of a national antimicrobial stewardship intervention, the National Health Service ...
