Physiologists And Microbiologists Find Link Between Sitting And Poor Health
Physiologists analyzing obesity, heart disease, and diabetes found that the act of sitting shuts down the circulation of a fat-absorbing enzyme called lipase. They found that standing up engages ... > more -
Biomedical Engineers Improve Dental Imaging And Care
Biomedical engineers used advanced cone beam imaging technology take a series of two dimensional x-rays, which enabled them to create a detailed three dimensional picture of the patient’s ... > more -
Advanced CT Scanner Provides Cardiologists Faster, More Detailed Images
New technology allows cardiologists to capture detailed pictures of the heart in less than one second, revealing subtle changes in blood flow and blockages in tiny blood vessels. This machine sends ... > more -
Biologists Develop Machine To Remove Viruses From Blood
Infectious disease experts designed a machine called the hemopurifier. It works much like a dialysis machine, using thin fibers to capture and remove viruses from the blood it filters. The machine ... > more -
Human Factors Researchers Develop Device To Measure Asthma Triggers
Industrial Hygienists created a device that monitors the air around a person who frequently suffers from asthma attacks. The device is comprised of a sensor system that measures airborne ... > more -
Dermatologists Detail The Scary Signs Of Stress Revealed By Skin
Dermatologists know that stress can cause hair to fall out, acne to break out, and many other problems. These manifestations of stress can cause even more anxiety. Stress causes cortisol levels to ... > more -
Vascular Surgeons Use Vibrating Catheter To Rid Arteries Of Pad-causing Plaque
Vascular surgeons can address peripheral artery disease by dissolving blood-blocking plaque concentrations with a vibrating catheter. Inserting the catheter into the blocked artery allows it to be ... > more -
Biomedical Engineers Combat Congestive Heart Failure With Aquapheresis
Biomedical engineers designed a machine that removes the excess sodium and water from blood. If not removed, those items can compromise breathing and heart function. An intravenous catheter withdraws ... > more -
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 -
Industrial Hygienists Reveal Dangers Of Mold
Microbiologists studying mold found that it can grow on almost any building material and in almost any environment. Even before becoming visible, mold can be dangerous because it releases chemicals ... > more
