The role of SPRTN protease in colorectal cancer chemotherapy by Peron, C

“…<p>Colorectal cancer (CRC) currently represents one of the most commonly diagnosed tumors, accounting for 10% of all cancer diagnoses and cancer-related deaths. The first-line treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) is frequently based on combination chemotherapeutic regimens, where 5-fluorouracil is either associated with irinotecan (FOLFIRI) or oxaliplatin (FOLFOX). …”

Piezoelectric single crystal based one-dimensional phased array for breast tissue imaging by Du, Wenya

“…In this thesis, I propose a conformable ultrasound breast patch (cUSBr-Patch) consisting of a one-dimensional (1D) phased array and a nature-inspired patch design, which offers large-area, deep tissue scanning and multi-angle, repeatable breast imaging while avoiding the drawbacks of conventional ultrasound imaging technologies. I used a Yb/Bi-doped PIN-PMN-PT single crystal as the active element due to its superior piezoelectric properties (d33 = 2,800 pC/N, εr = 7,000, k33 = 0.93). …”
