Advancements in medical imaging have lead to precision imaging techniques providing high quality and low background images to be used for diagnostic and treatment planning purposes. Precision imaging refers to medical imaging techniques and accompanying analysis that can qualitatively and quantitatively describe the subject of the image. Precision imaging obtains descriptive, predictive, and integrative details from the image generated.
The therapeutic applications of medical cannabis and cannabinoid drugs is controversial, however the number of medical conditions in which cannabinoids and cannabis have shown promise as ther...

Despite vast investment for decades in cancer research and development, cancer is still among the leading causes of death worldwide and its toll is expected to rise by about 70% over the next...
Clinical whole genome sequencing (cWGS) is rapidly gaining acceptance as cost is decreasing and success rates in identifying disease-causing variants are increasing. While the application of...
Although there have been enormous advances in gene sequencing, the results give massive amounts of data that only point to disease risk. Major health factors, including diet, lifestyle, envir...
