Molecular imaging of prostate cancer: translating molecular biology approaches into the clinical realm

Molecular imaging approaches in the diagnosis of breast cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Introduction:The accuracy of positron emission tomography with computed tomography (PET/CT), positron emission mammography (PEM), and breast specific-gamma imaging (BSGI) in diagnosing breast cancer has never been systematically assessed, the present systematic review was aimed to address this issue.  Methods:PubMed, Scopus and EMBASE were searched for st...

Translating clinical research of Molecular Biology into a personalized, multidisciplinary approach of colorectal cancer patients

Although multimodal treatment has brought important benefit, there is still great heterogeneity regarding the indication and response to chemotherapy in Stage II and III, and individual variations related to both overall survival and toxicity of new therapies in metastatic disease or tumor relapse. Recent research in molecular biology led to the development of a large scale of genetic biomarker...

Molecular biology of prostate cancer

In spite of progress in diagnosis and treatment, prostate cancer has become one of the most frequent lethal cancers in males in many Western industrialized countries. Research on the molecular biology of prostate cancer is expected to reveal those aspects of Western lifestyle contributing to its high incidence with the aims of improving prevention, distinguishing slow-growing from aggressive cl...

Molecular imaging of prostate cancer: tapping into the opportunities.

Gleason 6 Prostate Cancer: Translating Biology into Population Health.

PURPOSE Gleason 6 (3+3) is the most commonly diagnosed prostate cancer among men with prostate specific antigen screening, the most histologically well differentiated and is associated with the most favorable prognosis. Despite its prevalence, considerable debate exists regarding the genetic features, clinical significance, natural history, metastatic potential and optimal management. MATERIA...
