Cancer detection

Cancer cells are marked with luminescent detector molecules developed in Prof. Margolis' laboratory

The sunrise of the detector warns of cancer

An advanced molecular structure may detect and report intracellular activity that may cause cancer
The tuMap algorithm bridges the difference in the multidimensional information about different cancer patients and thus overcomes the difference between patients

Personalized medicine: a platform that enables comparative research of cancerous tumors

At the Rappaport Faculty of Medicine, an algorithm is being developed that improves the ability to compare cancer tumors of different patients in a way that overcomes the many differences between them

In the top row, CT images of an animal with cancer before (0h) and 24-72 hours after injection of 10 nm contrast agents into the circulation. The cancerous tissue is marked in the red circle. The accumulation of the contrast material in the tumor can be seen with micro CT in small animals. In the bottom row, an electron microscope image of cancer tissue, demonstrating a single cancer cell (left) from an animal injected with a contrast medium containing 30 nm gold particles. The dark particles are gold particles marked with red arrows. On the right - magnification of organelles from the same cell containing the contrast agents.
