Colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRLM) are characterized by distinct histopathological growth patterns (HGPs), desmoplastic (dHGP) also called encapsulated, replacement (rHGP) and pushing (pHGP) types, which have major prognostic and therapeutic implications. HGPs can only be determined histologically after surgical resection. This review explores molecular imaging as a pote…
Accurate diagnosis and treatment-response assessment for intraocular tumors, typified by choroidal melanoma and retinoblastoma, require characterization of tumor microvascular architecture and oxygenation. However, commonly used ophthalmic modalities—such as optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA), contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI…
Abstract Background: RF generators are core components of magnetic hyperthermia (MH) systems, yet output quality is rarely characterized beyond nominal frequency and amplitude. Harmonic distortion can introduce parasitic components that complicate reproducibility and accurate field characterization; MH-specific spectral quality indices remain limited. Purpose: This study propos…

Angiogenesis is a fundamental physiological process; however, its pathological dysregulation drives diseases such as solid tumors, wet age-related macular degeneration, and rheumatoid arthritis. Although clinically effective, conventional anti-angiogenic monoclonal antibodies are limited by poor tissue penetration, off-target toxicities, and susceptibility to compensatory resis…
Evidence suggests that combining deep brain stimulation (DBS) and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is potentially unsafe for certain TMS target locations, though TMS can alleviate several DBS-resistant PD symptoms such as speech impairment, freezing of gait, and dysphagia. Addressing this issue, head phantoms designed for TMS with embedded electric field (E-field) triaxi…
Background: Delivery of ultra-high dose rate radiation at mean dose rates > 40 Gy/s, also known as FLASH, shows great promise in widening the therapeutic window by decreasing the normal tissue complication probability without compromising tumor control. However, several obstacles stand in the way of the clinical translation of FLASH: the underlying mechanisms of the FLASH effec…

One type of dosimeter used in radiotherapy is the metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET), which is widely employed in in vivo dosimetry. This study investigated the response of a commercial MOSFET (STQ2HNK60ZR-AP) to photon and electron beams from a clinical linear accelerator. Radiation damage is typically associated with the dose received by the device and…
Existing volumetric MRI techniques are constrained by the trade-off between acquisition time and image quality, limiting accuracy in motion-impacted sites such as the liver. To enable fast, high-quality volumetric imaging with sufficient spatiotemporal resolution, we developed a time-resolved volumetric MRI technique that recovers 3D volumes from two orthogonally acquired MR sl…

BACKGROUND: Superficial brachytherapy enables localized dose delivery for superficial cutaneous lesions, but conventional applicators may be limited in treating extended, irregular, or curved surfaces. Geometric constraints, gaps or overlaps between adjacent applicators, and placement-related uncertainties can reduce dose uniformity, underscoring the need to optimize applicator…
Over 150 years ago, it was demonstrated that wounds produce electric fields and currents. Recent research provides strong evidence that these electric fields send a powerful signal to guide the migration of cells and epithelial sheets to heal. However, the mechanisms by which wounds generate and regulate the electric signals are not known. Here, we demonstrate that cornea wound…

This study develops a quantitative, physics-informed and falsifiable framework for evaluating QREC-MRT and uses coal as a worked empirical case study. The phy…
The FDA Modernization Act has accelerated the transition from animal-based testing toward human-relevant new approach methodologies in drug development, shifting attention from technological feasibility to regulatory implementation. Among these approaches, microphysiological systems (MPS) can generate evidence that more directly reflects human physiology, but their regulatory r…
Background Radiotherapy is a key treatment method for cancer, but high-dose treatment can lead to damage to normal tissues and chronic fibrosis. There is a lack of systematic temporal analysis of the dynamic progression from early damage signals to late extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition. Methods and materials We reanalyzed publicly available scRNA-seq count matrices from GS…
