Genomic Classifier Test for Lung Disease Validated

In the appropriate clinical setting, the diagnosis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) requires a pattern of usual interstitial pneumonia to be present on high-resolution chest computerized tomography (HRCT) scan or surgical lung biopsy. More...

Liquid Biopsy Potential Tested with ddPCR Technology

Droplet digital polymerase chain reaction (ddPCR) technology has been used to investigate the benefits of tracking drug-resistance mutations in the circulating DNA (ctDNA) of patients with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) metastatic breast cancer. More...

Immune Relationship to Lung Tumor Evolution Characterized

Non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) is any type of epithelial lung cancer other than small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC). NSCLC accounts for about 85% of all lung cancers. As a class, NSCLCs are relatively insensitive to chemotherapy, compared to small cell carcinoma. More...
