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 ...

Lens free holographic imaging for urinary tract infection screening [PDF]
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are a common condition that can lead to serious complications including kidney injury, altered mental status, sepsis, and death. Laboratory tests such as urinalysis and urine culture are the mainstays of UTI diagnosis, whereby a urine specimen is collected and processed to reveal its cellular and chemical composition ...
