Early Contrast Enhancement: a novel Magnetic Resonance Imaging biomarker of pleural malignancy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Introduction: Pleural Malignancy (PM) is often occult on subjective radiological assessment. We sought to define a novel, semi-objective Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) biomarker of PM, targeted to increased tumour microvessel density (MVD) and ...

Integrative Molecular Characterization of Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma.

open access: yesCancer Discovery, 2018
Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a highly lethal cancer of the lining of the chest cavity. To expand our understanding of MPM, we conducted a comprehensive integrated genomic study, including the most detailed analysis of BAP1 alterations to date.

Mesothelin and osteopontin as diagnostic and prognostic markers of malignant pleural mesothelioma in Egyptian patients undergoing pleurodesis

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2013
Purpose: In malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM), early assessment of disease status is important. We evaluated the role of mesothelin and osteopontin biomarkers in distinguishing MPM from benign pleural disease. We also, evaluated whether mesothelin and
