The dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) MRI measures of relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV) play a central role in monitoring therapeutic response and disease progression in patients with gliomas. Previous investigations have demonstrated promise of using rCBV in classifying tumor grade, elucidating tumor viability after therapy, and differentiating pseudoprogression and pseudoresponse. However, the quantification and reproducibility of rCBV measurements across patients, devices, and software remain a critical barrier to routine or clinical trial use of longitudinal DSC MRI in patients with gliomas.

Article Synopsis
  • Oral cavity cancer is the most common type of cancer in the head and neck, but there aren’t simple tests to diagnose or monitor it effectively.
  • Liquid biopsies, which involve testing samples of saliva or blood, could help keep track of cancer's progress and find specific DNA markers in patients.
  • Using liquid biopsies can improve early diagnosis and treatment of head and neck cancers by providing more detailed information about the tumors than traditional tissue samples.

Nanotechnology and its byproducts are used increasingly considering its global nanotechnology market size and many applications in the health field. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of aerobic and anaerobic exercises on cellular uptake of nanoparticles in body tissues. Fusarium oxysporum was used to synthesize biological AgNPs in silver nitrate solution and UV-vis spectrophotometer; XRD and TEM were used to confirm production of nanoparticles.
