Long COVID fatigue: Worse impact on quality of life than some cancers
UCL and the University of Exeter find that long COVID fatigue has a more profound impact on the daily lives of patients compared to certain cancers.
COVID-detecting breathalyser could identify cancer and lung disease
With the potential to revolutionise medical diagnostics, a breathalyser using quantum laser-based technology could diagnose illness from exhaled breath.
Universal receptor system allows customizable immunotherapies for cancer
A universal receptor system that enables T cells to recognize any cell surface target has been created by University of Pittsburgh researchers, which could revolutionise customizable immunotherapies for treating cancer and other diseases.
What are the symptoms of colorectal cancer?
Washington University School of Medicine researchers have identified four important symptoms of colorectal cancer that indicate elevated risk.
Cannabis for cancer: Improving sleep and pain tolerance
Could cannabis for cancer become a reality in patient wards? Researchers find the plant can improve sleep, pain, and brain clarity, easing 'chemo brain'.
How AI can optimise early cancer treatment
Early cancer treatment is vital to sustaining high cancer survival rates, but could AI improve clinician capabilities and predict worse cases?
Improving cancer therapy using sonoenhancement with acoustic cluster therapy
Sonoenhancement with Acoustic Cluster Therapy (ACT®) improves drug delivery to solid tumors, and by that reduces the necessary doses and side effects.
Can neurodevelopmental disorders affect testicular cancer occurrence?
Research finds that men who have a neurodevelopmental disorder, such as autism and ADHD, also have a slightly increased risk of testicular cancer.
Can AI be used to predict and prevent breast cancer?

The Pinpoint Test: Harnessing the power of AI in cancer diagnostics
Suspected cancer patients in England are currently referred to the NHS urgent cancer referral pathway, known as the ‘2-week wait’ (2WW). It guarantees that suspected cancer patients can see a specialist in Secondary Care within 14 days of referral.
Advancements in how we identify and treat hypoxic cancers
Cancers that are starved of oxygen, otherwise known as hypoxic cancers, are generally difficult to identify – but medical imaging has taken a new step with the MR-Linac scanner.
