Orthopedic Surgeons Unravel The Mystery Behind Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Doctors have found evidence that carpal tunnel syndrome develops after an injury shears the tissue that lines tendons within the carpal tunnel. As the injury heals, the resulting scar tissue impedes ... > 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 -
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 -
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 -
Sea Urchins' Genetics Add To Knowledge Of Cancer, Alzheimer's And Infertility
Researchers are using the sea urchins to study and understand diseases like cancer, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and muscular dystrophy. Although they are invertebrates, the creatures ... > 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 -
Portable Machines Go Beyond Prenatal Uses
Ultrasound uses sound waves that bounce off body parts, producing echoes. A computer translates the echoes into images that rival the quality of CAT scans and MRIs, showing broken bones, muscle ... > more
