Patients with recurrent ovarian cancer often face limited treatment options because tumors become resistant to chemotherapy and spread throughout the abdominal cavity. Systemic immunotherapies can help some patients, but high dose cytokines such as interleukin 2 are too toxic when […]
Cancer surgeons often struggle to distinguish healthy tissue from malignant tissue during an operation, and this uncertainty can lead to incomplete tumor removal or unnecessary damage to surrounding structures. A team of researchers has developed a handheld optical probe that
Handheld Probe Maps Cancerous Tissue in Real Time to Guide More Precise Surgery Read More »
Conventional cancer therapies often struggle to reach deep or irregular tumor sites without harming surrounding tissue. Scientists at the University of Essex have developed a new magnetic control system that could make future treatments far more precise. Their innovation, called
Magnetic Microrobotics Could Revolutionize Targeted Cancer Treatment Read More »
Pancreatic cancer remains one of the deadliest forms of cancer because it rarely causes symptoms until it has already spread. By the time most patients are diagnosed, treatment options are limited and survival rates are extremely low. Researchers at the
Cancer surgery often hinges on a difficult decision. Surgeons must determine which lymph nodes are likely to contain cancer and which should be preserved to avoid long term complications. Existing imaging tools can show where lymph fluid drains, but they

Cancer drugs often fail because they do not reach the right part of the cell, yet scientists have had no reliable way to track where a drug accumulates inside a living cell. Existing methods usually require killing the cell first,
New Single‑Cell Technique Reveals Exactly Where Cancer Drugs Go Inside Living Cells Read More »
Chemotherapy remains one of the most widely used cancer treatments, but it often affects the entire body rather than just the tumor. Because these drugs target fast‑dividing cells, they also damage healthy tissues like hair follicles, the digestive tract, and
Detecting cancer early often depends on sensing subtle molecular changes inside the body, yet most tools can only measure one biomarker at a time and struggle to operate reliably in living tissue. This limitation makes it difficult for clinicians to
A new development from MIT introduces a portable ultrasound sensor designed to make breast cancer screening more frequent, accessible, and timely for people at elevated risk. The research team created a compact imaging system that can be used at home
Portable Ultrasound Sensor Brings Earlier Breast Cancer Detection Into Homes and Clinics Read More »
A research team led by scientists at Shenzhen University has created a highly sensitive light‑based biosensor capable of detecting extremely low concentrations of cancer biomarkers in blood, offering a potential route to earlier and simpler cancer diagnosis. The system combines
