As far as bladder cancer is concerned, a possible culprit is the high concentration of disinfection byproducts present in tap water.

A study led by the University of California, Irvine shows a strong relationship between prolonged exposure to low levels of radon and lung cancer, indicating a need for enhanced protection measures. Radon gas in the air decays into tiny radioactive particles which can damage lung cells and lead to cancer.

Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have developed a new approach to quantify tumor-specific total mRNA levels from patient tumor samples, which contain both cancer and non-cancer cells.

As per the American Journal of Roentgenology (AJR), adding AI help into clinical practice can eliminate repetitious activities, saving a radiologist around one hour of chest CT interpretation time every day.

Eating higher levels of fish, including tuna and non-fried fish, appears to be associated with a greater risk of malignant melanoma, suggests a large study of US adults published in Cancer Causes & Control.

Professor Zhong Lin Wang of the Georgia Institute of Technology demonstrated in 2010 that the use of piezoelectric materials (materials that generate electrical energy when mechanical strain is applied) could improve the performance of optoelectronic devices (devices that convert light into electricity like solar cells) or electricity into light as in light-emitting diodes or LEDs.

In just a few minutes, scientists at Sweden’s Karolinska Institutet have developed a small sensor for identifying pesticides on fruit. The approach, which was described as real evidence in the journal Advanced Science, uses flame-sprayed silver nanoparticles to boost the chemical signal.

An international collaborative group, for the first time, has been successful in reproducing a topological change of viscous fingering in a numeric manner.

At the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), scientists and their collaborators have found out how next-generation solid-state batteries fail and engineered a novel strategy to make these batteries charge faster and live longer.

Digital pathology is a new field that mostly deals with microscope pictures obtained from patient biopsies.
