Acoustic Study Shows Safe Listening Levels
Loud, sustained sound can damage tiny hairs in the cochlea, and yet 80 percent of people listen to personal music devices at dangerous levels above background noise, a study by acousticians shows. ... > more -
Physiologists Investigate The Role Of Perception In Motion Sickness
The cause of motion sickness is being investigated by a researcher with a new idea: that the cause is movement, not perceptual differences. A series of motion-sickness-inducing tests shows that those ... > more -
Computer Scientists Make Laser Eye Operation Simpler
A new technique called Patterned Scanning Laser uses a computer instead of a human to apply laser pulses to burn away abnormal blood vessels. Instead of manually operating the laser, the pattern of ... > more -
Infectious Disease Specialists Design New Rapid Flu Test
New flu tests can diagnose the flu in as little as 30 minutes, to cut down on needless antibiotic use, which can build up resistance and make some infections untreatable by current ... > more -
Doppler-based Stethoscope Ignores Outside Sounds
A new ultrasound stethoscope ignores outside noise, allowing medics to hear life-saving sounds inside the body. Developed by electrical engineers, the device exploits the Doppler effect as it sends ... > more -
Chromosomal Test By Molecular Biologists Determines Cancer Spread
A new biopsy test, created by molecular biologists, can tell ocular melanoma patients if theirs is the kind that will spread. Using very thin needles, surgeons collect cells from tumors and analyze ... > more -
Neurologists Use New Brain Scanning Device To Better Control Seizures
Doctors are now using a new kind of brain scan called magnetoencephalography (MEG), which measures brain activity in real time. In some cases, MEG can pinpoint the source of an epileptic seizure much ... > more -
