Discover how matched tumor-normal sequencing can help clinical researchers detect the somatic origin of variants with certainty. In the era of precision oncology, it has become increasingly common for patients diagnosed with cancer to undergo tumor sequencing. Identifying the mutations that make up a tumor’s genomic landscape can help guide selection of targeted therapies and inform ...
Additionally, the article discusses the transition of the use of the NObreath® from primary care environments to secondary care facilities. Challenges in Primary Care GPs often face restricted budgets due to resource allocation for population needs, and financial sustainability to stay within healthcare budgets and prevent overspending. ...
POCT (Point-of-Care Testing) refers to clinical and bedside testing conducted in close proximity to patients. It is often not performed by clinical laboratory personnel. POCT holds significant importance in disease prevention, etiology determination, prognosis, enhancing treatment outcomes, and reducing healthcare expenses. It meets ...
"The promise of metabolic imaging to inform basic biology and improve clinical care is enormous; there is still much to be explored." The imaging results help demonstrate neurons metabolize glucose through glycolysis. ...
Using only an apical four-chamber ultrasound view, this new AI-enabled platform can identify heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and has been shown to minimize the indeterminate classification of HFpEF in both undefined and well-defined cohorts. [1] In this post, Professor Paul Leeson, Professor of Cardiovascular Medicine at the University of Oxford and Founder and Chief ...
Introduction to target region sequencing Since the introduction of Sanger sequencing in 1977, genetic sequencing has been greatly improved with costs simultaneously falling. With the ability to rapidly produce large volumes of sequencing data, next-generation sequencing (NGS) enables researchers to obtain whole genome or targeted regions of samples. Targeted region sequencing is preferred by ...
The new normal encompasses rapid development of treatments and new regulatory pathways to support the urgency towards faster times to clinic. Treatments are now administered outside traditional hospital care settings, including clinical studies conducted at home. ...
First, we begin by understanding whether AI might help pathologists address the challenges they face in prostate cancer diagnosis, by examining the impact such technology can have in clinical practice. Professor Clare Verrill, in the Nuffield Department of Surgical Sciences at the University of Oxford, is leading the ARTICULATE PRO study, an evaluation of AI in ...
The desire for increased efficiency and efficacy in clinical care has been the primary motivating reason behind the development of AI in medical imaging. ...
Sleep is an important factor to help maintain health and well-being. It’s recommended that an adult should get at least 7 hours of sleep a night. Getting a good night’s sleep has many benefits such as better memory, reduced stress levels and lowers the risk of heart disease. On the flip side, not getting enough sleep regularly can have serious repercussions such as a weaker immune ...
Shoulder subluxation can be very frustrating during stroke recovery causing pain due to impingement of nerves, deficits in arm range of motion, atrophy, alignment/posture, mobility, and self-care. When a shoulder subluxation occurs, the joint can either be anteriorly or posteriorly rotated within the capsule. ...
In the U.S., flu vaccines may be available at your local pharmacy, urgent care clinic and even in some schools. But just keep in mind that you may need to visit your child’s pediatrician or healthcare provider for the shot if your local laws require it. ...
Recognizing the need to provide additional patient support, many oncology clinics utilize care navigation nurses and have initiated care management programs such as Principal Care Management (PCM) and Chronic Care Management (CCM). ...
SmartTab has the potential to deliver medicines more effectively during clinical trials and advance patient care delivery while reducing healthcare costs. The company is on a mission to bring patient-centered drug delivery and monitoring to the 21st century to advance clinical trials—right here, right now. SmartTab recently completed a ...

It enables oncology practices to continue providing the care coordination and planning necessary for quality patient care. PCM allows billing for provider and clinical staff time for essential care management functions, including medication management, referral coordination, and transitions of care. ...
There is no such thing as unimportant, or non-eloquent, brain. For decades, neuroscientists and clinicians have studied the brain attempting to pinpoint the regions that control specific functions. This is the age old question of ‘What part of the brain is responsible for ___?’ For clinicians, this assists in determining where the source of certain disorders may originate and ...
The ability to predict how a clinical trial participant will adhere to their treatment, and even respond to that treatment, has great promise to advance patient-centric clinical research. ...

Just days before the sunset of the CMS Oncology Care Model, CMS announced its new Enhancing Oncology Model (EOM), the new value-based care oncology payment model. Rolled out as part of the Biden-Harris Administration’s Cancer Moonshot, the goal of EOM is to improve the experience of cancer patients, while advancing health equity and increasing access to ...
From diagnostic capabilities finding disease earlier to therapies that increase the quality of care, improve clinical efficiency, and lower cost. But healthcare has been slow to adopt technology because innovation can be long, incremental, and path-dependent. ...
Building a Foundation for Equitable Care Emphasizing the role of diverse datasets in building AI goes far beyond just having good technology or diversity for diversity’s sake. ...
