Background and aim Non-contrast computed tomography of kidneys, ureters, and bladder (CT KUB) is the gold standard radiological imaging for nephrolithiasis. It significantly contributes to the total radiation exposure of a population. This is well known to be linked to increased cancer risk over time and as such should be minimized in line with Ionising Radiation (Medical Exposure) Regulations (IR{ME}R).

Article Synopsis
  • - Functional genomics combines various scientific fields to study gene functions and their relevance in understanding diseases and developing new medications, particularly through drug repurposing, which leverages existing drugs for new therapeutic uses.
  • - Techniques such as gene expression profiling and Mendelian randomization help identify potential drugs by analyzing the molecular characteristics of diseases, while advances in computer science enable efficient data modeling of gene expression networks.
  • - Despite a wealth of existing research, functional genomics in cancer drug discovery remains underexplored, with next-generation sequencing and proteomics offering promising opportunities to enhance therapeutic advancements through publicly available databases and mining techniques.
