Deep Learning-Based Brain Tumour Detection and Classification
Early and accurate detection of brain tumours is essential for improving patient outcomes and guiding effective treatment plans. Traditional diagnostic procedures such as biopsies, performed after brain surgery, are invasive and carry significant risk. With recent advancements in technology, deep …

Electronic interfaces for biophotonics data capture
… suited for high-sensitivity, in-vivo cancer tumour detection biophotonics applications due to its high dynamic range, enabling detection of optical power levels as low as 1 pW. This capability is critical for applications such as Autofluorescence (AF) spectroscopy, where the light emission …

Biomechanical biomarkers of cancer
… and is therefore very important in malignant tumour detection. A biomechanical biomarker is a combination of model parameters that best identify tumours and tumour growth. This project investigated the possibility of obtaining a biomechanical biomarker of cancer using the newly develop finite …

Pre-hoc and Post-hoc Diagnosis and Interpretation of Breast Magnetic Resonance Volumes
… of higher survival rates with earlier tumour detection. Although these programs are normally based on mammography, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is recommended for patients at high-risk. The interpretation of such MRI volumes is timeconsuming and prone to inter-observer variability, …

Generation of Glioblastoma specific SNAP based antibody fusion proteins for future radiolabelling application
… CNS malignancy, accounting for 45% of brain tumours, with less than 5% of patients surviving for more than 5 years. To date, complete surgical resection followed by adjuvant chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy has been the standard of care treatment. This has been shown to not be curative, as it …

Development Of Recombinant Immunotherapeutics for Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC)
… to effectively treat the majority of TNBC tumours. These targeted anti-cancer therapies aim to enable the selective killing of cancer cells while minimizing harm to healthy cells. This selective cytotoxicity would result in a significant improvement in TNBC treatment efficacy while reducing …

Towards Refinement for Measuring Subcutaneously Transplanted Tumour Models in Mice
Evaluation using mouse subcutaneous tumour models is a key process in cancer drug development. Tumour material is implanted subcutaneously and tumour growth measured using callipers. However this methodology can have poor reproducibility and accuracy due to observer variation. Furthermore the …

Is the biology of breast cancer changing?: An exploration of breast cancer incidence and molecular epidemiology in Scottish women
… a finding which is likely to have been due to detection of large numbers of asymptomatic tumours. However, in women who were offered screening after the prevalent round, incidence continued to rise with successive birth year, suggesting a contribution from risk factors. This is the first study …

Breast Density: Optimisation of Communication and Clinical Care
… for breast cancer and a potential impediment to tumour detection in mammograms. Given these considerations, many argue that breast density information should be disclosed to women during routine screening mammograms. However, there is concern that providing this information, particularly to women …
