Studies suggest key correlation between lung cancer subtype and treatment outcomes
In clinical research, patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that are classified as having a non-squamous histology achieve statistically significant higher survival when treated in the second-line setting with ALIMTA® (pemetrexed for injection) when compared to histologically-similar patients treated with docetaxel.

Research identifies patterns of CD24, a novel biomarker for non-small cell lung carcinomas
The May edition of the Journal of Thoracic Oncology features a study aimed to clarify expression patterns of a novel cancer biomarker, CD24, in non-small cell lung carcinomas (NSCLC) and to correlate the findings to clinicopathologic variables, such as performance status, age, gender and prognostic significance.

Mouse brain seen in sharpest detail ever
The most detailed magnetic resonance images ever obtained of a mammalian brain are now available to researchers in a free, online atlas of an ultra-high-resolution mouse brain, thanks to work at the Duke Center for In Vivo Microscopy. View More (2010-10-26)
Coronary imaging techniques helps to identify plaques likely to cause heart attacks
Late-breaking results from the PROSPECT clinical trial shed new light on the types of vulnerable plaque that are most likely to cause sudden, unexpected adverse cardiac events, and on the ability to identify them through imaging techniques before they occur. View More (2009-09-25)
Mongolian paleontologists with a dream come to MSU
Jack Horner has flown to Mongolia the past three summers to search for dinosaur bones. Now three members of his field crew have joined him at Montana State University to start developing a new generation of Mongolian paleontologists. View More (2008-01-16)
Drug combination may provide option to patients with NSCLC ineligible for bevacizumab
A combination of nab-paclitaxel and carboplatin for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer may be a promising option for patients ineligible for treatment with bevacizumab. View More (2012-04-03)
St. Jude study offers new hope for children with kidney tumors deemed inoperable
Physicians at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital have demonstrated that children with bilateral Wilms tumor, a cancer of the kidneys, can retain normal function in both kidneys by undergoing a procedure called bilateral nephron-sparing surgery, even when preoperative scans suggest that the tumors are inoperable.

ASGE initiative examines real-time endoscopic assessment of the histology of diminutive colorectal polyps
In recognition of National Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month during March, GIE: Gastrointestinal Endoscopy has put out a special issue for March on colonoscopy and colorectal cancer. View More (2011-03-09)
Analysis shows combining sorafenib with carboplatin/paclitaxel adds no benefit in lung cancer
A clinical trial evaluating the benefit of adding the drug sorafenib to the combination of carboplatin/paclitaxel chemotherapy for lung cancer patients has been stopped based on results from an interim analysis, after an independent data monitoring committee concluded that the study would not meet its primary endpoint of improved overall survival.

Autopsies on the decline after Alder Hey
We could be losing valuable data on deaths in hospitals because of a decline in the numbers of autopsies performed in England and Wales, warn pathologists in the July Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine. Dr Norman Carr, Dr Margaret Burke and fellow Pathology Advisors to the National Confidential Enquiry into Perioperative Deaths (NCEPOD) point out the problems this could cause to bereaved...

Women with lung cancer are living longer than men, even when the disease is untreated. View More (2005-11-02)
SCAI Hildner Lecture highlights innovative techniques for plaque imaging
Virtual histology. Thermography. Palpography. Computed tomography. Today, during the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions (SCAI) 29th Annual Scientific Sessions in Chicago, Dr. Gregg W. Stone will explore these and other promising imaging techniques in a featured Hildner Lecture entitled, "Prospects for the Invasive and Non-Invasive Identification of Vulnerable...

Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center researchers have developed a new animal model for pancreatic cancer that exhibits a high degree of similarity to human tumors. View More (2006-11-15)
BioDonostia evaluates the use of a food-related method for the diagnosis of hepatic steatosis
A multidisciplinary research team from the Instituto Biodonostia made up by digestologists, epidemiologists and researchers of the Experimental Unit evaluates the use of a method so far employed in the food industry to improve the diagnosis of hepatic steatosis. View More (2010-07-21)
Vulnerable plaque may be easier to detect through new imaging technology
Research results indicate that optical coherence tomography (OCT), a newly evolving imaging method, may be the best tool available to detect vulnerable plaque in coronary arteries. The findings will be presented at the 20th annual Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics (TCT) scientific symposium, sponsored by the Cardiovascular Research Foundation (CRF).

New statistical method offers automatic mitotic cell detection for cancer diagnosis
Scientists have developed a statistical image analysis method which can assist in the grading of breast cancer by automatically segmenting tumour regions and detecting dividing cells in tissue samples. View More (2012-11-13)
New Genetic Screening Method Predicts Behaviour Of Wilms' Tumour In Children (p 385)
Researchers in this week's issue of The Lancet have developed a new method that can accurately predict how tumours will behave by the genes they express. Dr Kathy Pritchard-Jones and her colleagues, from the Institute of Cancer Research, UK, studied children who had the commonest form of Wilms' tumour with favourable histology. Overall, these children have a good chance of survival, but little... View More (2002-07-31)
