Disclosed is a 3D matrices for in vitro growth of tumor tissues.
Need to prune the system variables using faster and cheaper in vitro assays in order to design the in vivo experimentation on a smaller number of animals, obtaining the following advantages:
1. Speeding up the arrival to the clinical trial
2. Avoiding the sacrifice of animals with ethical and economic advantages.
Recreating a good model of tumor tissue in vitro allows you to experiment with new formulation anti-neoplastic drugs, to develop the optimal conditions of electroporation as well as the study of the cellular mechanisms underlying the disease.

  • Method for the automatic tracking of the fascial system displacement in ultrasound videos for objective site-specific evaluation and personalized treatment planning and prevention

    The proposed algorithm has the capability to qualitatively and quantitatively evaluate the gliding between the multiple substrates of the fascial system as a biomarker for a variety of different clinical conditions (e.g. low back pain) before-during-after treatment and in follow-up....

  • Diagnostic kit for inflammatory bowel diseases

    Inflammatory bowel diseases, namely, Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, are difficult to diagnose in a timely manner due to generic symptoms and lack of precise and reliable diagnostic methods priming for disease complications and colorectal cancer development. Current methods are...

  • Estimation of insulin sensitivity from CGM and subcutaneous insulin delivery in type 1 diabetes

    In the last 15-20 years new tools in diabetes therapy have emerged such as Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) and Continuous Subcutaneous Insulin Infusion (CSII) which are destined to substitute Self Monitored Blood Glucose (SMBG) and Multiple Daily Injection (MDI) technologies...
