Cardiologists Make Virtual House Calls
Cardiologists have begun including a mini-antenna with implanted defibrillators in order to relay information about the patient's health to an in-home wireless system and back to the doctor. The ... > more -
Molecular Biologists Devise Strategy To Starve Brain Tumors
Brain tumor researchers have found that brain tumors arise from cancer stem cells living within tiny protective areas formed by blood vessels in the brain. Killing those cells is a promising ... > more -
Acoustic Device Allows Sound To Travel Through Bones
Otolaryngologists develop a new, implantable hearing aid. It works with a transmitter worn behind the ear that sends sound vibrations from her deaf side through the skull to her good ear. It's ... > more -
Fabric Glides Over Skin Surface, Prevents Bacteria Build-up
Dermatologists developed a new kind of T-shirt fabric, called Derma Smart, that relieves the itch from dry skin diseases like eczema. The fabric is unique in that it glides over the skin's surface, ... > more -
Scientists Discover New Genes Linked To Rheumatoid Arthritis
A University of Michigan Medical School rheumatologist and his colleagues are beginning to comprehend how identical twins can be so different when it comes to the development of diseases such as ... > more -
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 -
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 -
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 -
Carb-cutting Enzyme Stopped By Bean Extract, Endocrinologists Say
UCLA researchers have found an extract in white kidney beans may help the body stop carbs from breaking down into sugars. A digestive enzyme in the body normally acts like scissors, literally cutting ... > 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
