...findings have applications beyond tumor detection in mice. Tung said that the knowledge could potentially be used for tumor characterization, to classify the tumors and determine the tumors' stages, since tumors behave differently at the different stages of their development...
...regular tumor detection right now there is a lot of misdiagnosis because you can't diagnose the early stage of the tumor growth," said Tung. "We've developed contrast agents so hopefully we can detect the signal from the tumor, and detect the tumor, earlier...
Using a new tumor-seeking compound injected into the bloodstream, four Harvard Medical School (HMS) professors have developed a system to detect the location and stages of cancerous growths...
