Dr. Pashtoon Kasi, M.D., Director of Colon Cancer Research at Weill-Cornell Medicine, presented these findings at the ASCO-GI conference.

Key Points: 
  • Dr. Pashtoon Kasi, M.D., Director of Colon Cancer Research at Weill-Cornell Medicine, presented these findings at the ASCO-GI conference.
  • "BOT/BAL's potential impact on colorectal cancer is groundbreaking.
  • BOT/BAL Eliminates Circulating Tumor DNA (ctDNA): patients in the NICHE-1 study were tested for ctDNA, a biomarker closely associated with long-term Disease-Free Survival (DFS).
  • Neoadjuvant BOT/BAL in both MSS and MSI-H CRC resulted in marked tumor regression and robust immune cell infiltration in a very short interval.

WAYNE, N.J., March 01, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- A study by Emory Healthcare reports that Konica Minolta Healthcare’s Dynamic Digital Radiography (DDR) , an enhanced version of a standard X-ray system that captures motion, provides more quantitative information on shoulder motion and a greater understanding of the injury and postoperative improvement than static imaging alone.

Key Points: 
  • WAYNE, N.J., March 01, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- A study by Emory Healthcare reports that Konica Minolta Healthcare’s Dynamic Digital Radiography (DDR) , an enhanced version of a standard X-ray system that captures motion, provides more quantitative information on shoulder motion and a greater understanding of the injury and postoperative improvement than static imaging alone.
  • DDR enables clinicians to visualize the dynamic interaction of anatomical structures, such as tissue and bone, with physiological changes over time.
  • DDR is not fluoroscopy; it is a series of individual digital images acquired at high speed and low dose.
  • “Konica Minolta congratulates the Emory Healthcare Orthopaedic research team on the recent publication of their study comparing SHR across different shoulder pathologies.
