Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common primary hepatic malignancies
and one of the fastest-growing causes of cancer-related mortality in the United States. The …

Metal nanoshells are a class of nanoparticles with tunable optical resonances. In this article,
an application of this technology to thermal ablative therapy for cancer is described. By …

Akt kinase plays a central role in cell growth, metabolism, and tumorigenesis. The TRAF6
E3 ligase orchestrates IGF-1-mediated Akt ubiquitination and activation. Here, we show that …

The elastographic visualization and evaluation of high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU)-induced
lesions were investigated. The lesions were induced in vitro in freshly excised …

Purpose To compare functional magnetic resonance (MR) imaging for language mapping (hereafter,
language functional MR imaging) with direct cortical stimulation (DCS) in patients …

We report noninvasive modulation of in vivo tumor radiation response using gold nanoshells.
Mild-temperature hyperthermia generated by near-infrared illumination of gold nanoshell-…

Background and Objectives The goal of this study was to explore the feasibility of magnetic
resonance thermal imaging (MRTI)‐based feedback control of intracerebral laser interstitial …

The complexity of modern in vivo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) methods in oncology
has dramatically changed in the last 10 years. The field has long since moved passed its (…

Hyperpolarized [1- 13 C]-pyruvate has shown tremendous promise as an agent for imaging
tumor metabolism with unprecedented sensitivity and specificity. Imaging hyperpolarized …

Image-guided thermal ablation of tumors is becoming a more widely accepted minimally
invasive alternative to surgery for patients who are not good surgical candidates, such as …
