AUA releases new guidelines on non-muscle invasive bladder cancer

11-09-2007 · EurekAlert!

The AUA is pleased to announce their new Guideline on the Management of Nonmuscle Invasive Bladder Cancer. Each year, more than 60,000 people are diagnosed with bladder cancer, which has been linked to a number of risk factors, including cigarette smoking and exposure to hazardous chemicals. The AUA originally published its guideline in 1999 and the report issued today is an update to that document.

  2. New approaches to the diagnosis of oral cancer
    03-23-2007 · EurekAlert!
    Oral cancer is diagnosed in more than 30,000 individuals in the US annually, claiming 10,000 lives each year. Early detection remains the best way to ensure patient survival and quality of life. Today, during the 85th General Session of the International Association for Dental Research, scientists from the University of California-Irvine present two novel, non-invasive, ultra-fast imaging approaches to oral cancer detection, diagnostic screening and mapping.

  3. UT Health Science Center researchers decoding saliva to detect breast cancer
    01-10-2008 · EurekAlert!
    Researchers at The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston can identify and quantify specific protein markers in human saliva to provide an early, non-invasive diagnosis of breast cancer, according to a study appearing today in the journal Cancer Investigation. The study is being applied to "lab-on-a-chip" technology that may bring this type of diagnostic test -- capable of detecting the presence of cancer before a tumor forms -- into everyday use.

  4. 2 microRNAs promote spread of tumor cells
    01-28-2008 · EurekAlert!
    Scientists at The Wistar Institute and their colleagues have identified two microRNAs that promote tumors' deadly spread. One of the miRNAs may provide an early warning of metastatic breast cancer and the need for aggressive treatment. In a study to be published Feb. 1 in Nature Cell Biology that is available online, the researchers describe how two miRNAs transformed non-invasive human breast cancer cells into cells that rapidly metastasized in cell cultures and mice.

    02-12-2008 · EurekAlert!
    Elevated levels of anxiety may cause women with ductal carcinoma in situ, the most common form of non-invasive breast cancer, to overestimate their risk of recurrence or dying from breast cancer, suggests a study led by researchers at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston.

  6. New diagnostic technologies offer non-invasive means
    04-15-2007 · EurekAlert!
    Molecular messages and signals circulating in blood or contained in cells lining the airway can identify early stage cancer, according to research reported today at the 2007 Annual Meeting of the American Association for Cancer Research. Scientists looking to apply basic science knowledge to medical practice are developing tests that diagnose, predict or monitor cancer risks, without invasive tissue sampling. Such tests could benefit all, particularly underserved populations, such as the poor, who often wait until symptoms appear before seeing a doctor.
