Offer Description

JUNCTION aims to lay the foundations for a completely new paradigm in the field of breast cancer, developing a technique capable of discriminating malignant lesions with high probability to show a pathologic response after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC).The goal is to merge the strengths of two orthogonal biophotonic techniques, each one targeting independent risk factor biomarkers, to reinforce the prediction of the NAC outcome. This multimodal investigation will be based on time domain diffuse optics (TD-DO) and surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) techniques, respectively sensitive to average tissue composition and to overexpression of peculiar biomolecules.A joint probe tailored for minimally invasive investigations, devised to enable in the future to approach the tumor will be designed to allow for combination of TD-DO and SERS techniques into a single examination session.
