Rous Sarcoma Virus (RSV) and Cancer

6.4K
Rous Sarcoma virus or RSV was discovered by F. Peyton Rous in the year 1911 as a filterable transmissible agent that could cause tumors in chickens. He won a Nobel Prize for this discovery in 1966. His experiments clearly demonstrated that some cancers could be caused by infectious agents and led to the discovery of many more cancer-causing viruses in animals as well as humans.
RSV is a retrovirus that contains two copies of a plus-strand  RNA genome. Its genome consists of four main open...

Cells with similar structure and function are grouped into tissues. A group of tissues with a specialized function is called an organ. There are four main types of tissue in vertebrates: epithelial, connective, muscle, and nervous.

Tissues

68.3K
Tissues are a group of cells that share a common embryonic origin. Microscopic observation reveals that the cells in a tissue share morphological features and are arranged in an orderly pattern to perform specific functions. From an evolutionary perspective, tissues appear in more complex organisms. Although there are many types of cells in the human body, they are organized into four broad categories of tissues: epithelial, connective, muscle, and nervous. Each of these categories is...

Plant Cells and Tissues

65.8K
Plant tissues are collections of similar cells performing related functions. Different plant tissues will have their own specialized roles and can be combined with other tissues to form organs such as flowers, fruit, stem, and leaves. Two major types of plant tissue include meristematic and permanent tissue.

Plant Tissue Culture

40.7K
Plant tissue culture is widely used in both primary and applied science. Applications range from plant development studies to functional gene studies, crop improvement, commercial micropropagation, virus elimination, and conservation of rare species.

Tissue Membranes01:27

Tissue Membranes

8.4K
A tissue membrane is a thin layer of cells that covers the outside of the body, the organs, internal passageways that lead to the exterior of the body, and the lining of the moveable joint cavities. There are two basic types of tissue membranes— connective tissue and epithelial membranes.
Connective Tissue Membranes
The connective tissue membrane is formed solely from connective tissue. These membranes encapsulate organs, such as the kidneys, and line our movable joints. A synovial...

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Radiology
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Soft tissue sarcomas are rare, heterogeneous neoplasms.
  • Imaging is essential for staging, chemotherapy response monitoring, and recurrence surveillance.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review current imaging techniques for soft tissue sarcoma management.
  • To discuss the evolving role of imaging in individualized treatment strategies.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current literature on imaging modalities for soft tissue sarcomas.
  • Analysis of the utility of basic versus advanced imaging technologies.

Main Results:

  • Basic imaging techniques remain fundamental in soft tissue sarcoma management.
  • The role of newer and hybrid imaging strategies is uncertain due to cost and availability.

Conclusions:

  • Imaging plays a critical role throughout the management of soft tissue sarcomas.
  • Standardized algorithms for advanced imaging in soft tissue sarcomas are lacking.
  • Basic imaging modalities continue to be the cornerstone of sarcoma evaluation.
