Why we write about this topic:<\/summary>

This project is innovative in the sense that it might support the early diagnosis of cancer and determine what the margin for surgical intervention is.\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/details>\n\n\n\n

Researchers from the University of Coimbra<\/a>, Portugal, announced a new optical technique that helps identify cancer in patients in their early stages. This method can utilize laser radiation or infrared to detect cancer and even analyze the surgical margin of each case, as written in a press release<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most approaches to diagnosing cancer nowadays are histopathological, which allows doctors to differentiate between regular and cancerous cells morphologically. <\/p>\n\n\n

Researchers from the University of Helsinki have developed an artificial intelligence model to optimize cancer treatments. <\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n

The Portuguese study, VIBSonCANCER, focused on optical methods of diagnosing cancer using a vibrational spectroscopy approach. This non-invasive technique provides medical experts with possible chemical alterations in a patient\u2019s cells, assisting in an early and rigorous diagnosis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the researchers, this new practice does not aim to substitute the current methods but gives extra information not obtained by other means. The effectiveness of this technique was very positive, even being capable of differentiating non-malignant and malignant testing tissues. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scientists are now developing a prototype that could impact chemotherapy and alternative treatments’ success rates. Overall, they aspire to benefit the prognostics of cancer patients in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2559,"featured_media":511980,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"advgb_blocks_editor_width":"","advgb_blocks_columns_visual_guide":""},"categories":[34665],"tags":[56383,50273,71830,45945,128861],"location":[65764],"internal_archives":[],"class_list":["post-415091","selected","type-selected","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-health","tag-cancer-diagnosis","tag-early-detection-of-disease","tag-kanker-2","tag-non-invasive","tag-optical-technique","location-portugal-nl"],"blocksy_meta":[],"acf":[],"featured_img":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/710361fa741aa165363668c772355956-m.jpg","coauthors":[],"author_meta":{"author_link":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/author\/pedro\/","display_name":"Pedro d\u2019 El Rodrigues"},"relative_dates":{"created":"Posted 4 years ago","modified":"Updated 4 years ago"},"absolute_dates":{"created":"Posted on October 24, 2022","modified":"Updated on October 24, 2022"},"absolute_dates_time":{"created":"Posted on October 24, 2022 10:00 am","modified":"Updated on October 24, 2022 10:00 am"},"featured_img_caption":"","tax_additional":{"category":{"linked":["Health<\/a>"],"unlinked":["Health<\/span>"],"slug":"category","name":"Categories"},"post_tag":{"linked":["cancer diagnosis<\/a>","early detection of disease<\/a>","kanker<\/a>","non-invasive<\/a>","optical technique<\/a>"],"unlinked":["cancer diagnosis<\/span>","early detection of disease<\/span>","kanker<\/span>","non-invasive<\/span>","optical technique<\/span>"],"slug":"post_tag","name":"Tags"},"language":{"linked":["EN<\/a>"],"unlinked":["EN<\/span>"],"slug":"language","name":"Tags"},"post_translations":{"linked":["pll_63564264b1922<\/a>"],"unlinked":["pll_63564264b1922<\/span>"],"slug":"post_translations","name":""},"location":{"linked":["Portugal<\/a>"],"unlinked":["Portugal<\/span>"],"slug":"location","name":"Locations"},"internal_archives":{"linked":[],"unlinked":[],"slug":"internal_archives","name":"Internal Archives"}},"series_order":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/selected\/415091","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/selected"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/selected"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2559"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/511980"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=415091"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=415091"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=415091"},{"taxonomy":"location","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/location?post=415091"},{"taxonomy":"internal_archives","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal_archives?post=415091"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
