"Tumouroid" platforms advance liver cancer research and treatment
Liquid biopsies can advance cancer treatment. A liquid biopsy simply involves using a patient's blood from a routine blood draw procedure to diagnose cancer. ... In this study, patients' ctDNA harboured three mutations, on average
The scientists induced osteonecrosis in the long bones of mice, using cryoablation for 60 s to kill the bone area by freezing it. Once the osteonecrotic lesions were induced in the femur or tibia of the mouse, the "kill zone" remained dead and unable to heal from the induced osteonecrosis
