Robotic Camera Will Take Motion X-Rays by Following Patients' Movements
Orthopedic injuries are among the most common reasons people visit the doctor. Whether it's pain in the knee, hip or shoulder, doctors have a difficult time making an exact diagnosis without surgery. ... > more -
Biomedical Engineers' 'Body-on-a-Chip' Could Reduce Cost of Developing New Drugs
A new kind of microchip can host human cells to mimic the reaction of different tissues in the body. The chip could help reduce the need for animal testing, and lower the cost of developing new ... > more -
Immune Modulation Therapy Attacks Link Between Inflammation and Congestive Heart Failure
Inflammations that occur after a heart attack can be a severe complication that further damages the heart. Cardiologists are now trying a new approach called immune modulation therapy, which exposes ... > more -
Neurologists, Imaging Scientists Use Medical Physics to Spot Disease in Blood Vessels
A new brain-imaging method allows physicians to diagnose Alzheimer's before its onset. A radioactive dye is injected in the blood and travels to the brain, where it attaches to plaque deposits of ... > more -
Psychiatrists Can Predict Onset of Alzheimer's with New EEG Test
Using new computer software that analyzes EEG data, psychiatrists can now better distinguish early signs of Alzheimer's from normal aging, by spotting marked differences between the left and right ... > 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 -
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 -
Vascular Surgeons Lower Blood Pressure with Implanted Device
A new cell phone-sized implant can keep blood pressure in check from within the chest, just like a pacemaker controls heartbeats. When the device detects a rise in pressure, it sends electrical ... > more -
Pediatric Neurologists Use MRI to Understand How Strokes Impair Verbal Abilities
Children who have speech-impairing strokes often learn to talk again, while adult stroke victims can lose their verbal abilities for good. By giving reading and verbal tests inside the MRI, ... > more
