A dual photodynamic and chemo therapy for skin cancers is proposed.
A team of German researchers created a new multimodal system for rapid, noninvasive in vivo skin cancer screening is presented, combining optical coherence tomography (OCT) and optoacoustic (OA) modalities to provide precise tumor depth determination with a Raman spectroscopic modality capable of detecting the lesion type and, thus, providing diagnostic capability.
A team of North American scientists discovered that Short wave infrared Raman spectroscopy has the potential to accurately differentiate normal and malignant kidney tumors.
In situ vaccination therapy has immense potential in cancer treatment for clinical use. To date, in situ vaccination is already used to treat bladder cancer and melanoma, and with further study could become an important approach to expand immune-based cancer treatment.

Cone-shaped gold nanoparticles are activated by ultrasonic waves, with applications in cost-effective targeted drug delivery.
A possible relationship between commonly-occurring oral bacteria and the cancer-causing human papillomavirus (HPV).
Researchers from Nankai University and the Collaborative Innovation Center of Chemical Science and Engineering in Tianjin, China, demonstrate a luminescent sensor based on a lanthanide metal–organic framework (Ln-MOF) for early detection of cancer.
A team of researchers from the UK present the application of wavelength modulated Raman spectroscopy for the automated label‐ and fluorescence‐free classification of fixed squamous epithelial cells in suspension, such as those produced during a cervical smear test.
