6. Lung Metastases - Diagnostic, Prognostic and Molecular Aspects with Focus on Colorectal Cancer
Abstract : In Sweden 4200 patients are diagnosed with lung cancer and 6500 patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) annually. The lungs are a common site for metastases. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) is a helpful aid in diagnostics of a pulmonary tumour. READ MORE

7. A high-throughput pathology approach for further insight into the role of RBM3 as a biomarker of prognosis and chemotherapy response in human cancer
Abstract : Cancer incidence is increasing and it is the number one cause of death worldwide. Cancer is a highly heterogeneous disease and there is a great need for new early diagnostic, prognostic and treatment predictive biomarkers in order to improve patient outcomes. READ MORE

8. Prognostic and predictive biomarkers in metastatic colorectal cancer constant and evolutionary perspectives
Abstract : Colorectal cancer (CRC) affects nearly 2 million people each year and accounts for 900 000 deaths worldwide. The main prognostic factor is disease stage at diagnosis and around 40% of the patients presents with or develop metastatic CRC (mCRC). READ MORE

10. Biomarker Discovery in Cutaneous Malignant Melanoma : A Study Based on Tissue Microarrays and Immunohistochemistry
Abstract : The incidence of cutaneous malignant melanoma has increased dramatically in Caucasians the last few decades, an increase that is partly explained by altered sun exposure habits. For the individual patient, with a localized disease, the tumor thickness of the excised lesion is the most important prognostic factor. READ MORE
