Scientists developed an AI-based approach to diagnose colorectal cancer from different microbial subgroups in the gut microbiota – a non-invasive and low-cost alternative to colonoscopy screening.
Men assessed as healthy may still have an early form of prostate cancer. Using AI, researchers found signs that were missed in more than 80% of samples of men who later developed cancer.
New research suggests that KFRE, a common prognostic tool to predict kidney failure, could underestimate the risk for individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD) who also have frailty.
Type 2 diabetes greatly increases the risk of heart attacks, strokes, anginas, and other coronary heart diseases. Therefore, biomarkers to predict individual risk are needed, experts say.
A multicenter study involving leading hospitals across Spain, has confirmed that people with COPD show altered levels of specific metabolites in their blood.
Agilent Technologies Inc. announced the introduction of its Dako Omnis family of instruments with three new models—Agilent Dako Omnis 110, 165, and 165 Duo—designed to meet the evolving needs of pathology laboratories of all sizes.
Do laboratory tests using blood-based biomarkers (BBB) represent the next type of universally recommended screening tests for Alzheimer's disease (AD)? Experts curb the high expectations for this type of diagnostic tool.
Tumor vesicles may serve as early indicators of cancer and help monitor the effectiveness of treatments. Now, researchers discovered a new way to detect these vesicles.
Defining four different immunologic subtypes of recurrent ovarian cancers, researchers pave the way for more personalized treatment.
After an infection with the coronavirus Sars-CoV-2, the virus is able to persist at low levels in the brainstem, new research finds. This helps explain some of the enduring neurological symptoms.
Classifying prostate cancer as “low-grade” could create a false sense of security and delay definitive treatments. A new study shows that the biopsy grade alone can paint an incomplete picture.
Common respiratory infections such as influenza and Covid-19 can awaken dormant breast cancer cells that have spread to the lungs, setting the stage for new metastatic tumors, new research finds.
Laboratories across Europe are embracing sustainability through paperless workflows and automation. In this guest article, Gavin Hirst, Clinical Flow Cytometry Account Manager at Beckman Coulter Life Sciences, shares his thoughts on how digital transformation and eco-friendly practices not only advance climate goals but enhance efficiency, allowing scientists to focus on critical research rather…
Antibiotics are known for disrupting the microbiome in the gut and thus paving the way for diseases. However, many common non-antibiotics also have this effect, a new study shows.
By identifying the unique biological signatures that guide AI tissue classification, new research lays the foundation for smart surgical tools with the added feature of biomolecular-level precision.
The earlier Alzheimer's disease is detected, the more effective treatments become. Now, a Finnish study shows that signs related to Alzheimer’s may already be found in the brain in middle age.
When someone is infected with a virus, traces of it are shed in their bodily waste and end up in the sewage system. Thus, combined wastewater and individual testing can benefit public health response.
Starting fecal immunochemical testing (FIT) early significantly reduces both the incidence and mortality of colorectal cancer. These results of a new study support earlier screening.
More consistent TIL assessments, more accurate patients' prognoses: New research shows how AI sharpens pathologists' interpretation of tissue samples for malignant melanoma.
Molecular markers in saliva could reveal the risk of a person developing major diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and neurodegenerative diseases, new research finds.
Digital pathology software company Fujifilm Healthcare Europe and Ibex Medical Analytics, specializing in AI-powered cancer diagnostics, announce a formal partnership to support efficient and accurate cancer diagnosis.
Newly developed technology can detect breast cancer relapses up to five years in advance. This advance could represent a turning point in post-treatment follow-up, the researchers hope.
A new ‘liquid biopsy’ test can help fast-track lung cancer patients to receive targeted therapy up to two weeks earlier, while helping avoid further tests and treatments including chemotherapy.
Using nine different molecular biological technologies, researchers were able to precisely measure the properties of a melanoma tumor in four weeks and enable a precise treatment decision.
