A team of researchers affiliated with several institutions in the U.S., has found that applying a synchronized modulation electric field to mouse kidneys can reduce damage due to ischemia-reperfusion injury. In their paper ...
When it comes to cancer detection, size matters. Traditional diagnostic imaging cannot detect tumors smaller than a certain size, causing missed opportunities for early detection and treatment. Circulating tumor exosomes ...
