Cardiologists Use Medical Physics to Pinpoint Cause of Chest Pains
Unless a patient with chest pain is checked out right away, it can be difficult to diagnose a heart condition, as opposed to less life-threatening causes such as heartburn. A new stress test can spot ... > more -
Pathologists Use Digital Imaging to Speed Up Cancer Diagnosis
A new digital microscopy system allows doctors to examine biopsy tissue and diagnose breast cancer within hours instead of weeks. The same instrument can be used for all kinds of cancers, and it ... > more -
Researchers Apply DNA Biology to Vaccination Technique
Spraying viral genes directly through the skin is a new technique that turns infinitesimal amounts of DNA into an effective vaccine. If approved for use in humans, the new procedure could save lives ... > more -
Microbiologists Find Soap and Water Best for Washing Hands, Removing Germs
Microbiologists tested 14 hand-hygiene agents -- everything from soap and alcohol rubs to plain old tap water -- against hardy bacteria and viruses applied to the hands of 62 volunteers. The study ... > more -
Incubator Enables MRI Scans on Preemies for Preventing Birth Asphyxia
Designed by a team of doctors, nurses, and engineers, a specially designed incubator allows premature babies to receive MRI scans to assess their health. The scans can measure many indicators, such ... > more -
Optical Scientists, Psychiatrists Develop Minimally Invasive Eye Test for Alzheimer's
Building upon a recent discovery that the same Alzheimer's disease process that goes on in the brain also occurs in the eye, researchers have developed a pair of optical tests that can determine the ... > more -
Pediatric Cardiologists Show Hormone Therapy Reduces Cancer Treatment Side Effects
Studying childhood cancer patients who have suffered tissue and organ damage from chemotherapy treatments, researchers have found that growth hormones can reverse damage to the heart. Before the ... > more -

Bioengineers Combine Mathematical Equations, Data to Simulate Surgeries
A new hi-tech method takes the guesswork out of cardiovascular surgery. Using mathematical equations, bioengineers build a personalized computer model of each heart patient, then perform the surgery ... > more -
Surgeons Combine Heat, Chemistry to Bolster Anti-Cancer Drugs
In efforts to boost the effectiveness of anti-cancer drugs, a new method called intra-peritoneal hyperthermic chemotherapy works by flushing a heated chemotherapy drug through tissue surrounding a ... > more -
Cardiologists Employ Biomedical Engineering to Safeguard Heart Patients
To prevent strokes in at-risk patients who suffer from atrial fibrillation, an abnormal heart rhythm, researchers have devised a mechanical alternative to common drug treatments. In the procedure, ... > more
