TU München researchers discover how chronic cellular stress changes gut microbiome composition, promoting cancer development through altered lipid metabolism.
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.
Dysphagia can significantly reduce a person's quality of life. Now, research teams have developed a new 3D bioprinting method to create safe and appealing meals for dysphagia diets.
AI tools for adenoma polyp detection are designed to help increase the accuracy of colonoscopies. However, a new study finds that using AI may lead to loss of detection skills in health professionals.
Fujifilm Healthcare Europe announce the European launch of the EG-860R routine gastroscope as the latest addition to their Eluxeo® endoscopy portfolio.
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.
Beyond the visible spectrum: A new LED-based hyperspectral imaging system shows promise for gastrointestinal cancer detection during endoscopy.
Fujifilm Healthcare Europe announce the European launch of the new routine colonoscope with a state-of-the-art CMOS sensor. This is the third in a series of new and upcoming solutions to be released.
A University of Liverpool study has used advanced genetic and genomic techniques to offer a major step forward in understanding and diagnosing infectious intestinal diseases.
Fujifilm Healthcare Europe announce the European launch of their new therapeutic gastroscopes and narrow endoscope for advanced treatment.
Engineers developed a robotic probe that can generate high-resolution 3D ultrasound images from deep inside the gastrointestinal tract. The robot reaches its target with a unique kind of movement.
A rigorous review of evidence showed that AI-assisted technology helps identify colorectal polyps. However, its impact on preventing colon cancer remains unclear.
Research on biliary tract cancer is advancing rapidly, ranging from targeted treatments to new drugs. However, the delivery of these advances to patients is lagging behind, new European studies find.
Crohn’s disease is incurable, with high rates of recurrence. A new approach, involving surgical removal of the mesentery, dramatically reduces the possibility that follow-up surgery will be needed.
The gastrointestinal microbiome holds valuable information that can help predict whether immunotherapy will be successful against melanoma. A new “gut-on-a-chip” is designed to do exactly that.
Infections with Salmonella can increase the risk of colon cancer. New research sheds light on how this bacterium can cause this. The findings provide new leads for new treatments.
When women are pregnant and nurse their babies, their bodies change to ensure the health of both mother and child. Researchers now surprisingly find that the intestine also changes completely.
Experts have used magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to better understand the impact a gluten free diet has on people with celiac disease, which could be the first step towards new treatments.
Medtronic announced it has received CE Mark approval for its Endoflip 300 impedance planimetry system to measure pressure and dimensions in the oesophagus and pylorus in adults.
