Not all cancer mutations are equal: new research shows that a single mutation hotspot can generate a rich diversity of tumour behaviours. This could lead to more personalised cancer treatments.
Immunotherapy has been hailed as a breakthrough in cancer treatment. But new research reveals: under sustained treatment pressure, cancer does not simply weaken — it adapts, learns, and fights back.
To soften up tumors prior to cancer chemotherapy, a team of researchers paired high-frequency ultrasound waves with a type of sound-responsive particle to reduce the protein content of the tumors.
A novel AI-based method can distinguish between progressive brain tumours and radiotherapy-induced necrosis on advanced MRI. This could help clinicians more accurately identify and treat the issues.
IDH mutated gliomas are slow-growing brain tumors with a relatively good prognosis. A new study shows that many patients reveal measurable cognitive impairment in the first year after treatment.
Most patients with metastatic colorectal cancer do not respond to immunotherapy—but why? A new study shows how the tumours block the immune system through two complementary mechanisms.
An international team has developed an AI model that brings together medical imaging data and clinical information to calculate the risk of breast cancer tumour recurrence more accurately.
Researchers have discovered a previously unknown mechanism that explains how bacteria within a tumor can drive treatment resistance in patients with oral and colorectal cancer.
A new type of SPECT imaging provides strong prognostic information to guide prostate cancer treatments according to tumor evolution, significantly impacting patients' overall survival.
A new technique has measured boron in individual cancer cells for the first time, enabling researchers to better understand how drugs act to kill tumours in some cancers.
Tracer molecules serve to provide visual guidance in nuclear medicine, but a new molecule could give surgeons additional audio cues to help them locate prostate cancer tumors and metastases.
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.
Microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) tumors are associated with better clinical outcomes. A novel AI model for accurate MSI prediction could help battle gastric and colorectal cancers.
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.
By analyzing CT images with 3D software, researchers demonstrated that small liver tumors can be successfully treated using ablation. This could enable more confident use of ablation treatments.
A new, bacteria-based contrast agent illuminates tumors like a neon sign during surgery, enabling more precise resection and reducing the risk of recurrence.
A new AI-based tool measures cancer aggressiveness by analyzing the ‘stemness’ of tumors – their similarity to pluripotent stem cells. This could pave the way for new therapies.
Korean researchers have developed a wireless implantable drug delivery system that enable chemotherapy drugs to penetrate deep into solid tumors—without harming surrounding healthy tissue.
