Chris McCain was dying. He knew it. His wife, daughter and son also knew it. Years ago, at age 37, Chris had undergone a double lung transplant, but now those lungs were failing.
Un nuevo estudio realizado por los investigadores del Centro Oncol贸gico Integral de Mayo Clinic ha descubierto que la presencia de una mutaci贸n gen茅tica espec铆fica 鈥 el ADN tumoral circulante KRAS (ADNct) 鈥 indica un riesgo extremadamente mayor de propagaci贸n del c谩ncer y peores tasas de supervivencia para los pacientes con adenocarcinoma ductal de p谩ncreas (PDAC, por sus siglas en ingl茅s). La mutaci贸n se identific贸 mediante un an谩lisis de sangre y fluido abdominal f谩cilmente disponible y cl铆nicamente aprobado.

A paper published in JAMA Internal Medicine suggests that if current radiation dosing and utilization practices continue, CT-associated cancers could eventually account for 5% of all new cancer diagnoses annually. However, the methods used are fundamentally statistical in nature with a large amount of uncertainty, said Cynthia McCollough, past president of AAPM.
Desalination plants, a major and growing source of freshwater in dry regions, could produce less harmful waste using electricity and new membranes made at the University of Michigan.
Researchers have unveiled a novel imaging method that leverages the interaction between light, sound, and thermally induced changes in materials. This discovery identifies a previously unexplored contrast mechanism in optoacoustic imaging, which arises from small temperature-driven variations in electromagnetic properties.
