Unlocking the potential of tumor‐derived DNA in urine for cancer detection: methodological challenges and opportunities

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Urine is a rich source of biomarkers for cancer detection. Tumor‐derived material is released into the bloodstream and transported to the urine. Urine can easily be collected from individuals, allowing non‐invasive cancer detection. This review discusses the rationale behind urine‐based cancer detection and its potential for cancer diagnostics ...

Diagnostic imaging of osteoporosis and sarcopenia: a narrative review.

Quantitative Imaging in Medicine and Surgery, 2018
Osteoporosis and sarcopenia represent two major health problems with an increasing prevalence in the elderly population. The correlation between these diseases has been widely reported, leading to the development of the term "osteosarcopenia" to diagnose

OCT for glaucoma diagnosis, screening and detection of glaucoma progression. [PDF]

, 2013
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a commonly used imaging modality in the evaluation of glaucomatous damage. The commercially available spectral domain (SD)-OCT offers benefits in glaucoma assessment over the earlier generation of time domain-OCT due

Identification of functional and diverse circulating cancer‐associated fibroblasts in metastatic castration‐naïve prostate cancer patients

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) promote cancer growth, invasion (metastasis), and drug resistance. Here, we identified functional and diverse circulating CAFs (cCAFs) in patients with metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa). cCAFs were found in higher numbers and were functional and diverse in mPCa patients versus healthy individuals, suggesting their ...

Patent Urachus Presenting as Acute Abdomen

Journal of Medical Ultrasound, 2015
The urachus is an epithelial tubular structure located in the midline that spreads from the anterosuperior part of the bladder to the navel, connecting the apex of the urinary bladder with the allantois in the fetus, and is involved in forming the ...

Imaging diagnostics for transitional discs [PDF]

Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2013
Transitional discs are a special type of protoplanetary discs where planet formation is thought to be taking place. These objects feature characteristic inner cavities and/or gaps of a few tens of AUs in the sub-millimitre images of the disc. This signature suggests a localised depletion of matter in the disc that could be caused by planet formation ...

Diagnostic imaging in gynecology

Ginekologia Polska, 2022
Ultrasound (US), computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are the "gold standard" among gynecological imaging methods. They are important diagnostic tools used to determine the site of origin of a pelvic mass and to characterize the adnexal lesions. This paper summarizes the diagnostic performance of ultrasound, computed tomography,

Computed tomography-based anatomic assessment overestimates local tumor recurrence in patients with mass-like consolidation after stereotactic body radiotherapy for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. [PDF]

, 2012
PURPOSE: To investigate pulmonary radiologic changes after lung stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), to distinguish between mass-like fibrosis and tumor recurrence.

Clinical applications of next‐generation sequencing‐based ctDNA analyses in breast cancer: defining treatment targets and dynamic changes during disease progression

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) offers a possibility for different applications in early and late stage breast cancer management. In early breast cancer tumor informed approaches are increasingly used for detecting molecular residual disease (MRD) and early recurrence. In advanced stage, ctDNA provides a possibility for monitoring disease progression and

Ionising radiation exposure from medical imaging – A review of Patient's (un) awareness [PDF]

, 2019
Introduction: Medical imaging is the main source of artificial radiation exposure. Evidence, however, suggests that patients are poorly informed about radiation exposure when attending diagnostic scans.
