AI blood test detects over 90 % of lung cancers
An artificial intelligence blood testing technology was found to detect over 90% of lung cancers in samples from nearly 800 individuals with and without cancer.
Pancreatic organoids on a chip platform
An organoid on chip platform mimics robustly key features of human pancreas development. This is a stepping stone towards reliable diagnostic solutions for early-stage pancreatic cancer.
Medical needles for high-tech cancer diagnostics
Modern medicine needs better quality samples than traditional biopsy needles can provide, ultrasonically oscillating needles can improve treatment and reduce discomfort.
AI can identify cancerous cells by their acidity
Using a special dye, cells are colored according to their pH, and a machine learning algorithm can detect changes in the color spectrum due to cancer.
Sensor chip detects cancer biomarker in urine
Researchers have used a chip-based sensor with an integrated laser to detect very low levels of a cancer protein biomarker in a urine sample.
Lab-on-a-chip detects cancer less invasively
A new ultrasensitive diagnostic device could allow doctors to detect cancer quickly from a droplet of blood or plasma, leading to timelier interventions and better outcomes for patients.
