Cancer links: lazy post
I’ve been neglecting my #CHMedicalImagingSeries because I’ve been crazy busy at work. We are getting a new SPECT/CT which, ironically (or maybe not) is the next modality in the series. Because cancer affects so many people, directly and indirectly, I think it’s important to re-share Buddhini Samarasinghe’s stellar work in her series. Even for researchers like us, cancer is personal. When the drudgery of lab work or analysis makes you want to crawl under your desk or when frustration from confounding results makes you want to pull your hair out (if you have hair), we remind ourselves of the loved ones, friends, acquaintances, etc. that have been hurt by cancer. We march on, with your support, with your stories, with your courage.
So if you want to know about cancer without the jargon, read Buddhini’s series. Hopefully my series will resume soon.

I need to go through them all…. though I often get lost in some of the technical details. Not something I understand easy.

I want to test some of these hallmarks in in-vitro model. But I think all of these hallmarks are in a harmony and are not apart of each other

Lacerant Plainer just don’t reward yourself with BBDG when you are done reading.

Samaneh SK you can test some of the hallmarks in vitro and many people do. However, as you noted, most tumors in vivo use the hallmarks in concert in order to proliferate.

Chad Haney LOL! Nice, nice….. you’re on a roll my man +100 for that!
