• Bladder Cancer Urine Test Gains an Edge Canceling Out the Noise

    Jun 04 | Diagnostics World News | A prominent urologic oncologist has helped develop a urine test found to be strikingly predictive of bladder cancer recurrence among patients undergoing surgery followed by BCG therapy, the current gold standard treatment regimen. The liquid biopsy also tends to identify recurrence risk that is missed by routine cystoscopy exams. More

  • At Bio-IT World's 25th Anniversary, Rare Disease Takes Center Stage

    Jun 02 | Diagnostics World News | At last month's Bio-IT World Conference & Expo, the opening plenary session featured an intimate series of paired conversations, each designed to place a different set of puzzle pieces on the table, examining that puzzle from four distinct vantage points — patient experience, AI-assisted diagnostics, venture investment, and policy reform — with each conversation delivering a bit more clarity to the emerging picture.

  • Seegene Launches Antimicrobial Product in Europe, Cirius Receives Grant from Gates Foundation, Mayo Clinic Digital Pathology Integrated Ecosystem

    May 29 | Diagnostics World News | Myriad Genetics launches the Prolaris + AI Test for prostate cancer; Lucent Diagnostics announce a collaboration with Tempus AI; Oxford Nanopore Technologies and Lonza launch new technology to modernize and accelerate GMP quality control testing for mRNA therapeutics; and more. More

  • Data is Both the Fuel and Downfall of AI in Drug Development

    May 27 | Diagnostics World News | At Scope X, Novo Nordisk gave a presentation on how high-impact opportunities for leveraging AI across the pharmaceutical R&D cycle are too numerous to count but won’t “automagically” solve any of the longstanding problems in ushering molecules to market. AI requires human attention to match tools to tasks for ensuring the accuracy of model predictions, and the pitfalls are dangerously easy to miss, More

  • Follow the Money: AI Engine for Drug Design, NVision Expands Platform, Kanvas Advances Partnerships

    May 26 | Diagnostics World News | Isomorphic Labs plans to continue development and deployment of its AI drug design engine; NVision expands POLARIS platform into quantum computation; Kanvas Biosciences advances commercial partnerships that leverage the company’s spatial imaging and manufacturing platform; and more. More

  • Pancreatic Cancer Detection Based on Circulating Tumor-Released Nanoparticles Beats Biopsy

    May 21 | Diagnostics World News | Researchers at the Oregon Health and Science University have established a rapid blood test to differentiate pancreatic cancer from other pancreatic conditions. The method involves the analysis of tumor-secreted nanoparticles on a specialized chip and actually outperforms the gold-standard needle-based biopsy diagnosis. More

  • Beyond the Snapshot: A Duke Researcher Is Using Blood Flow Simulations to Transform Heart Disease Diagnosis

    May 19 | Diagnostics World News | For patients seeing a cardiologist, their diagnosis and next steps rest on data gathered at a single point in time: the day of their appointment. One blood pressure reading. One imaging scan. One day’s data to define the health of a continuously changing system. The Duke Center for Computational and Digital Health Innovation developed a platform that may be a better way. More

  • Microchimerism: Lifelong Biological Connections Impacting Everyone

    May 14 | Diagnostics World News | During pregnancy, the cells of a fetus make their way into the tissues of mom where they can persist for decades, much like what happens when someone gets an organ transplant but to a far tinier extent. That the maternal-fetal exchange results in chimerism—more specifically, “microchimerism”—is a relatively little-known yet fascinating and profoundly common biological phenomenon. More

  • 23andMe: How Genetics Contribute to GLP-1 Drug Outcomes

    May 13 | Diagnostics World News | An engaged research cohort of over 11 million genotyped individuals has enabled 23andMe to produce a library of more than 300 peer-reviewed publications over the past 16 years. Following a 2025 bankruptcy filing, when it reemerged as a nonprofit medical research organization, the focus has settled on providing individuals with access to their genetic information, supporting genetics education, and studies that provide a deeper understanding of human genetics. More

  • Regulatory Outlook in Diagnostics Innovative and Uncertain

    May 12 | Diagnostics World News | The diagnostics industry is at the intersection of enormous clinical development and technological change, enabling first-ever detection milestones heavily driven by artificial intelligence (AI) and multi-biomarker tests. But it has increasingly been coming into conflict with a decades-old regulatory system that didn’t anticipate these technological changes and a political environment that favors U.S. competition and innovation but is also interested in cutting the budget.
