Breast cancer is a type of cancer that begins in the cells of the breast. It can occur in both men and women but is more common in women. Breast cancer can develop in different parts of the breast, including the tubes that carry milk to the nipple or the lobules that produce milk. The exact cause of breast cancer is not completely understood, but factors such as genetics, hormone situations, ...
The medical industry is a new frontier for Raman spectroscopy. In the past few years, Raman has been used in dental and cancer studies, and is now building on this success by extension into Point-of-Care (POC) applications. This article gives an overview of some very new and exciting research into the use of Raman spectroscopy for the detection of cancerous tissue, biomarkers of disease, and ...

The Covid-19 pandemic highlighted the disparity between those who succumbed to severe illness while others remained relatively unaffected, underscoring the urgent need to shift the healthcare industry’s focus from a one-size-fits-all approach to more personalised healthcare. Personalised medicine promises to transform healthcare with treatments tailored to a patient’s unique genetic ...

Pathologists conduct a biopsy on a tissue when a carcinoma case for a patient is suspected. They stain the cells on that tissue using some biochemical materials that react with a certain cell element. They put stained cells onto a slide and examine the cells by using an optical microscope device. In our case, we will focus on H&E stained breast tissue samples. Pathologists keep track of a ...
Automatic scoring of Ki-67 with digital image analysis would improve the accuracy of the diagnostic. However, automatic Ki-67 assessment is very challenging due to complex variations of cell characteristics. In this paper, we propose an integrated framework for accurate Ki-67 scoring. The main contributions of our method are: a robust cell detection algorithm to detect all tumor and non-tumor ...
Revolutionizing breast cancer detection Breast cancer is the most diagnosed cancer in women in the United States and the second leading cause of cancer death in American women.1 It is also treatable if detected early enough. While there are various cancer detection modalities available, current breast imaging devices fail to expose as much as 35% of breast cancers and that number increases to ...
Abstract Background: One of the most important areas of Raman medical diagnostics is identification and characterization of cancerous and noncancerous tissues. The methods based on Raman scattering has shown significant potential for probing human breast tissue to provide valuable information for early diagnosis of breast cancer. A vibrational fingerprint from the biological tissue provides ...
Abstract Raman imaging (RI) is a novel method of medical diagnostics of human breast cancer and has a potential to become a routine optical biopsy. Up to date the present study is the most statistically reliable Raman analysis based on data of normal, benign, and cancerous breast tissues for 146 patients. This paper present the first Raman ‘optical biopsy’ images of the normal and ...
Twenty five-week old hens (n = 6) were administered with an oral dose of 75 mg of Oxytetracycline (OTC) hydrochloride per day per head for five consecutive days and its residues in eggs as well as breast, leg and liver tissues were analysed by a high-performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet visible detection (HPLC-UV) technique. The highest OTC residue concentration in egg white (0.5944 µg ...
Transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) signaling facilitates metastasis in advanced malignancy. While a number of protein-encoding genes are known to be involved in this process, information on the role of microRNAs (miRNAs) in TGF-β-induced cell migration and invasion is still limited. By hybridizing a 515-miRNA oligonucleotide-based microarray library, a total of 28 miRNAs were ...
