An expert summit for craniomaxillofacial (CMF) care brought together leading surgeons to explore how digital technologies are reshaping surgical planning, precision, and patient outcomes.
Breast cancer claims around 670.000 lives each year. Now, researchers propose that whole genome sequencing (WGS) could help many patients find better treatments or match them with clinical trials.
Precision Oncology Ireland (POI), a €28M cancer research programme uniting universities, charities and industry to develop tailored diagnostic and therapeutic solutions, has now entered phase 2.
Currently, cancer treatment evaluation focuses heavily on survival outcomes, but doesn't adequately consider how treatments affect quality of life. A new policy review aims to change this.
Researchers have developed a machine learning algorithm that uses cardiac MRI images to help identify breast cancer patients who may be at risk of cardiotoxicity during cancer treatment. The research, led by cardiologist Dr Paaladinesh Thavendiranathan from Toronto General Hospital University Health Network, was presented at the European Society of Cardiology's Cardio-Oncology Conference in…
A newly developed method to accurately quantify how much radiation is absorbed by the blood during cancer treatment could lead to more personalised, preventive, and safer radiotherapy.
Gadolinium-based contrast agents enhance visibility but also pose a significant health risk. A new AI-powered virtual MRI imaging technique is designed to offer a safer diagnostic approach.
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.
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.
When should preventive mastectomy be offered for women at higher risk of breast cancer? A new evaluation model defines thresholds at which risk reducing surgery should be recommended.
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 profiling of over 1,000 nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) tumours reveals distinct differences in tumour microenvironment of locoregionally advanced NPC, supporting personalised treatment.
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.
With the introduction of boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT), Helsinki University Hospital offers a new radiation therapy method that can destroy cancer cells while sparing the surrounding tissue.
Does having blood type A increase the risk of breast cancer? A new systematic review and meta-analysis involving more than 13,000 breast cancer patients suggests a connection.
Results of a new retrospective study demonstrate the potential of a novel, CT-based deep learning-driven tool to enhance liver cancer diagnosis, treatment planning, and response evaluation.
At the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium (SABCS), three experts presented new approaches and study results for the treatment of breast cancer in young women.
