  • Early Detection of Colorectal Cancer
    Publication number: 20230341402
    Abstract: Methods and systems for detection of precancerous colorectal cancerous lesions and early stage colorectal cancer are described. The methods and systems include examination of a rectal cell sample for the presence of mast cells in a field effect detection regime. The methods can incorporate swab-based cell collection, optionally storage and transportation of a cell sample, and/or computer-aided diagnosis.

  • Use of fusarochromanone and its derivatives in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer and other diseases
    Patent number: 9132280
    Abstract: A method of photodynamic therapy to treat diseased cells in an animal is generally provided. According to the method, 5-amino-2,2-dimethyl-6-[3?-(R,S)amino-4?-hydroxy-butan-1-one]-2,3-dihydro-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one or an analog thereof is administered to the animal such that the 5-amino-2,2-dimethyl-6-[3?-(R,S)amino-4?-hydroxy-butan-1-one]-2,3-dihydro-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one or an analog thereof accumulates in the diseased cells. Then, the diseased cells containing 5-amino-2,2-dimethyl-6-[3?-(R,S)amino-4?-hydroxy-butan-1-one]-2,3-dihydro-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one or an analog thereof is exposed to light energy (e.g., ultraviolet light).
