Researchers at the Tisch Cancer Institute at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have now identified a new treatment that promises to help cancer patients with bone marrow transplants manage side effects better than current standard therapies, making the treatment more effective and safer.

PET/CT and PET/MRI, the world's leading-edge imaging screening devices, have extremely significant advantages in the early screening and diagnosis of a wide range of benign and malignant tumours throughout the body, the nervous system and the cardiovascular system, and can detect tumours as small as millimetres, especially useful for the early detection and treatment of liver cancer, breast cancer and pancreatic cancer.

As more and more organisms become resistant to antibiotics, the threat to human health is increasing. The overuse of antibiotics leads to drug resistance. It is very important to limit the use of antibiotics. The research team of the University of Alberta in Canada has recently developed a hand-held detection instrument, which allows first-line clinicians to distinguish between patients with viral infection or bacterial infection within a few minutes, thus helping to reduce unnecessary antibiotic prescriptions and overuse of antibiotics. Because antibiotics are only effective for bacteria, if the patient is infected with virus, there is no need to prescribe antibiotics.

In the early stages of atherosclerotic disease, most patients have almost no clinical symptoms and develop in a latent state of insidiousness.

Fujifilm Corporation and the National Center for Psychiatric and Neurological Research have announced positive research results using Fujifilm's new AI technology to predict whether a patient with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) will progress to Alzheimer's disease (AD) within two years.

On April 4, 2015, the 100-year-old active swimmer Mieko Nagaoka (living in Tabushi Town, Yamaguchi Prefecture, Japan) successfully completed the women's 1500-meter freestyle competition and became the world's first swimmer in the age group of 100-104.

For brain cancer, the major obstacle to treatment is not the tumour, but the brain itself. How to break the "blood-brain barrier" and allow effective anti-cancer drugs to enter the brain to take effect has long been a key issue in brain cancer treatment. Recently, a new study has shown that a new type of pump can be implanted in brain cancer patients to safely break the blood-brain barrier and better treat brain cancer!

For patients undergoing surgery for ovarian and endometrial cancer, pain and anxiety are often experienced. Recently, a new study has shown that acupressure before surgery may help reduce anxiety and that acupuncture during surgery may reduce severe pain. The study was published online in Cancer, a peer-reviewed journal of the American Cancer Society.
