New Computer Technology Makes Lasik More Sensitive
Ophthalmologists have developed new software that analyzes the shape of the patient's cornea during the LASIK procedure and automatically adjusts the laser based on that cornea's unique anomalies. ... > more -
MRI Can Replace CT Scans, Reducing Cancer Risks
New studies by radiologists have shown that MRI can be just as accurate as CT scans at helping radiologists diagnose pathologies such as cancer, cysts and kidney stones -- while carrying less risk, ... > more -
Stents Help Cardiothoracic Surgeons Treat Aortic Aneurysms
A new, minimally invasive procedure allows cardiothoracic surgeons to treat aortic aneurysm patients for whom open-chest surgery would pose serious risks. A stent endograft, inserted endoscopically ... > more -
EMG Helps Physiatrists Find Causes of Pain
Electromyography (EMG) detects the electrical potential generated by muscle cells, and can test nerve function. EMG can help physiatrists pin down the cause of back pain in cases such as spinal ... > more -
Pressure Sensors and Transducers Help Make Dummies More Life-Like
Electrical, computer, and biological engineering combine in creating baby-patient simulators for training new pediatricians. A new simulator incorporates microelectromechanical systems (MEMs) and ... > more -
Opthalmologists Develop Laser Procedure to Shorten Patients' Recovery
Replacing the scalpel with a laser, a new cornea transplant procedure leads to faster recovery. Instead of a straight cut, the laser makes zigzag slices around the patient's eye and the donor cornea. ... > more
