 | | |  Key Considerations When Outfitting a Preclinical In Vivo Imaging Laboratory When setting up a preclinical in vivo imaging laboratory, several factors have to be taken into account which will partly depend on the particular imaging systems in the lab and the expected workflow of research that will be conducted. In addition to these, there are some aspects of laboratory set-up which are essential to meet both regulatory and safety requirements, whilst others are meant to ease routine productivity at the laboratory. | | | | |  Angiosarcoma Diagnosis Angiosarcoma (AS), which is a soft tissue tumor that affects the inner layer of blood and lymph vessels, is often asymptomatic in the early stages. Most of the sub-types of this disease manifest only when it has reached a serious level or has spread to other parts of the body. | |

| | | | |  Researchers have demonstrated a new, effective way to precisely identify and localize prostate cancer tumors while protecting healthy tissue and reducing side effects. | | | | |  Although the transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) procedure is performed in patients with severe liver disease, the complication rate is less than 5%. These must be identified and treated promptly to avoid danger to life. | | | | |  Cocaine-addicted individuals say they find the drug much less enjoyable after years of use, but they have great difficulty quitting. | | | | |  A task force consisting of researchers from around the world and led by a scientist at the Krembil Research Institute in Toronto has released a set of recommendations that advise against the use of brain imaging as a test for chronic pain. | | | | |  Patients with high risk prostate cancer starting long-term hormone therapy may benefit from two new treatments, according to late-breaking results from the STAMPEDE trial presented at the ESMO 2017 Congress in Madrid. | | | | |  Barrett’s esophagus is a condition in which the tissue lining the esophagus – the tube that passes the food from the mouth to the stomach – is replaced by tissue similar to that of the intestinal lining. This occurs chiefly in the cells of the epithelial tissue which lines the lower end of the esophagus. | | | | |  A University of Arkansas at Little Rock professor is making strides toward developing an effective cancer treatment without the severe side effects of traditional therapies. | | | | |  Nutrition has been linked to cognitive performance, but researchers have not pinpointed what underlies the connection. | | | | |  The source of spontaneous, high-amplitude bursts of activity seen in the brains of preterm babies, which are vital for healthy development, has been identified by a team led by researchers at UCL and King's College London. | |
