Cryoablation emerges as a promising alternative to conventional lumpectomy for low-risk early-stage breast cancer, reducing invasiveness while effectively targeting malignant cells. Our newsletter also delves into the role of deep learning in enhancing pneumonia diagnosis through ultra-low dose CT scans. Additionally, we explore the innovative approach of liquid biopsy in minimizing chemotherapy for colon cancer patients, offering a less intrusive treatment option. Enjoy reading!
