Solid tumors are not merely collections of malignant cells but complex ecosystems comprising tumor cells, stromal cells, and the extracellular matrix (ECM).

A new study in the Journal of the American College of Radiology, published by Elsevier, has found that automated breast ultrasound (ABUS) and handheld ultrasound (HHUS) had similar cancer detection rates in women with dense breasts, while ABUS had a lower false-positive rate.

Doctoral dissertation research investigated how the family environment in childhood affects health in midlife.

Distinguishing malignant from benign biliary strictures remains a major clinical challenge. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP)-guided cytology and biopsy may be inconclusive, particularly in early-stage disease or when tissue is scarce.

Breast cancer screening must balance diagnostic accuracy with workflow throughput. DM remains the traditional cornerstone, but its two-dimensional projection creates tissue-overlap noise, particularly in dense breasts, leading to false positives and obscured lesions.
