X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein mediates tumor cell resistance to antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity.
(Cell Death Dis, 2016-01-28)Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is the deadliest, distinct subtype of breast cancer. High expression of epidermal growth factor receptors [EGFR or human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)] in IBC tumors has prompted ... -
X-ray Coherent Scatter Imaging for Intra-operative Margin Detection in Breast Conserving Surgeries
(2015)One of the challenges facing clinical practice today is intra-operative margin detection in breast conserving surgeries (BCS) or lumpectomy procedures. When a surgeon removes a breast tumor from a patient during a BCS ... -
X-Ray Diffraction Imaging for Breast Tissue Characterization
(2020)Although mammography is the gold standard for early screening for breast cancer, there is a need in improving its specificity. X-ray diffraction (XRD) has shown the ability to detect cancer based on its molecular properties; ... -
X-ray Diffraction Spectral Imaging for Breast Cancer Assessment
(2017)Breast cancer surgical treatment options prove effective at treating breast cancer and reducing breast cancer death rates, prompting women to elect to surgically excise the tumor via a lumpectomy procedure. Despite women ... -
X-Ray Diffraction Study of Boron Produced by Pyrolysis of Boron Tribromide
(2016)The goal of this research was to determine the composition of boron deposits produced by pyrolysis of boron tribromide, and to use the results to (a) determine the experimental conditions (reaction temperature, etc.) necessary ... -
