Microscopes & Early Detection of
Cancer
Microscopes can also provide information regarding the likely behavior of a tumor and its responsiveness to treatment.
According to the American Cancer Society, cancer remains the second most common cause of death in the U.S., accounting for nearly 1 out of every 4 deaths. Detecting cancer at an early stage greatly increases the chances for successful treatment To diagnose the presence of cancer, a doctor must look at a sample of the affected tissue under a microscope. Biopsy and cytology specimens undergo microscopic examination. This examination will help the doctor determine whether a tumor is actually present and, if so, whether it is malignant (i.e., cancer) or benign. In addition, microarrays may be used to determine which genes are turned on or off in the sample, or proteomic profiles may be collected for an analysis of protein activity. This information will help doctors make a more accurate diagnosis and may even help to inform treatment planning.

Endoscopic Microscope for Early Cancer Detection An engineering researcher at the University of Arkansas has recently developed an inexpensive, endoscopic microscope that will help clinicians detect and diagnose early-stage disease, primarily cancer. This laboratory equipment also serves as
an

monitoring
device
by
providing a “preview of biopsy.� This fiber-optic device helps clinicians target ideal locations on lesions prior to and during surgical biopsies and capture high-resolution images of tumor margins in real time. The device is portable, re-usable and easily packaged with conventional endoscopes.
