3-D imaging platform shown to spot lung cancer in sputum

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
Recent clinical data show that the automated 3-D cell imaging platform Cell-CT from VisionGate Inc. of Phoenix detects lung cancer in sputum samples with high sensitivity and specificity. The pilot study was presented at the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer’s 15th World Conference on Lung Cancer. Cell-CT uses optical projection tomography to generate high-resolution 3-D signatures from intact cells. Initially, the method is intended for adjunctive use with x-ray CT screening to address the high rate of false-positive results associated with CT screening alone. ...Read full article
