Traumatic brain injury (TBI) increases dementia risk, but the reasons are poorly understood. Now, a study explores the role of the brain's blood vessels as drivers of Alzheimer's disease.
Helping the brain repair itself after a stroke: A new study based on unique tissue samples from Denmark's Brain Bank may pave the way for new treatments that support brain regeneration.
Liverpool physicists have developed a “diagnostic infrared wand” to more accurately predict the prognosis of oral cancer lesions than current H&E staining techniques.
Complex diseases could require complex biomarkers for accurate diagnosis in the years ahead, according to a leading pathologist. In a keynote address to the 36th European Congress of Pathology in Florence, Italy, Professor Manuel Salto-Tellez highlighted this as one of the major future challenges for the discipline. However, he also believes pathologists will sit at the core of modern medicine.
Metabolic-associated fatty liver disease has 2 types – a liver-specific type and a systemic type that affects other organs and tissues. This discovery could lead to better diagnosis and treatments.
Sakura Finetek Europe and MEDIPATH, a group of independent French pathologists, announced their collaboration to enhance cancer diagnostics and thus contribute to improved patient therapeutic management. This decision is part of an ongoing commitment to improving the quality of care provided to patients and in response to the significant increase in cancer cases over the last years.
A new study shows how inherent variations in a cancer cell and its interactions with its surroundings mould its migration. The findings provide valuable insights into the processes behind metastasis.
Molecular pathology should become centralised in fewer labs to improve efficiencies and affordability, according to leading European experts.
In many cases, metastatic breast cancer is still incurable. To improve the odds, researchers have now analyzed the diversity of metastatic cells and their interactions with their cellular environment.
By combining mass spectrometry and mass cytometry imaging techniques, researchers can now dive deeper into tumors and map the metabolism of individual cells in tumor tissue.
Sakura Finetek’s Tissue-Tek Xpress® x120 Rapid Tissue Processor is the only instrument on the market that allows for continuous, rapid processing of both biopsy and larger tissue, resulting in a streamlined histology workflow. Being part of Sakura’s SMART Automation concept, this tissue processing solution is designed to automate manual work and create a continuous flow throughout the lab.
Testing from histopathology laboratories is considered the gold standard for many diseases. To avoid errors that can significantly impact patient outcomes, an expert details on quality assurance (QA).
In a recent study, researchers proposed a novel technique to help make stained histopathological image datasets more useful for many emerging machine-learning-based classification systems.
Cologne researchers have developed an AI-based digital pathology platform to enable extremely fast and accurate fully automated analysis of tissue sections from lung cancer patients.
New research shows that the AI large language model ChatGPT can be tailored to provide accurate responses to questions about digital pathology and compile detailed results.
Ductal Carcinoma in Situ (DCIS) often develop into more invasive forms of breast cancer. To predict which DCIS patients are likely to be affected, researchers have developed an analytic AI-based tool.
Tackling standardization of molecular pathology at a European level remains a major challenge, according to speakers at the 35th European Congress of Pathology in Dublin. One leading expert warned it would be ‘very difficult’ to achieve, though the session also heard about potential solutions such as educational steps to consistently train future pathologists at a high and consistent level.
When point-of-care testing (POCT) models for diagnosing infectious disease are effective, the quality of pathology results can be equivalent to laboratory tests, new research shows.
Embark on a journey of unparalleled efficiency and precision with Sakura Finetek Europe's newest innovation in identification technology: the Tissue-Tek xPrint® LP Laser Cassette Printer.
