Diagnosing Heartburn
Gastroenterologists are
using confocal laser
endomicroscopy (CLE) to more
effectively diagnose chronic
heartburn. The technology
gives doctors an image of
the esophagus that is
magnified 1,000 times. A
... > full story
Saving Eyes
Ocular oncologists adopted a
drug originally intended to
treat colon cancer as a
treatment for cancers in the
eye as well as macular
degeneration. The drug
reduces abnormal blood
vessel growth, which starves

Sound Detects Breast Cancer
Radiologists suspend a
patient's breast in water,
and then send sound waves
through the water in order
to image breast tissue. The
device uses 256 ultrasonic
sensors to assemble 50 to 70

Blood Test For Breast Cancer
Biochemists look at 22
protein biomarkers to
distinguish patients with
breast cancer from those
without it. The early
detection test complements
mammograms and is most

Electrical Engineers Create Test For Carbon Monoxide Poisoning
Electrical engineers use multiple wavelengths of light to see through the skin in order to measure the amount of carbon monoxide in the blood. This approach enables first responders and doctors to ... > more -
Gastroenterologists Use Optics To Detect Early Stages Of Colon Cancer
Biomedical engineers have developed a new technique to detect colon cancer. A thin optical fiber shines light onto the interior of the colon. Computer analysis of the backscattered light indicates if ... > more -
Dermatologists Discover Sun Protection Under The Sea
Dermatologists recognize the benefits of a compound called astaxanthin. Found in red ocean plants and animals such as salmon, astaxanthin is the most effective and efficient free radical sponge in ... > more -
Marine Biotechnologists Treat Cancer With Mud-loving Ocean Bacteria
Biomedicine scientists identified and sequenced the genes of a bacteria called Salinispora tropica. It produces anti-cancer compounds and can be found in ocean sediments off the Bahamas. A product ... > more -
Neurosurgeonýs Drive Propels Him From Border Fence To Faculty
Physician scientist Alfredo Quinones has come a long way since illegally entering the United States. Today he is a faculty member at Johns Hopkins University. Quinones is a respected brain surgeon ... > 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 -
Radiologists Use Digital Tomosynthesis To Produce 3-d Image Of Breast
Radiologists have devised a better way to perform a mammogram, called digital tomosynthesis. An X-ray tube moves in an arc around the breast, capturing several images. The information is then sent to ... > 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 -
Food Chemists Slice Up Healthier Pizza
Food chemists have shown that making a pizza crust with whole wheat flour and cooking it longer releases more antioxidants. These chronic disease-fighting compounds increased by 82 percent when baked ... > 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
