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 -
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 -
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 -
Neurologists Use New Brain Scanning Device To Better Control Seizures
Doctors are now using a new kind of brain scan called magnetoencephalography (MEG), which measures brain activity in real time. In some cases, MEG can pinpoint the source of an epileptic seizure much ... > more -
Chemists Develop New Tool For Treating Rosacea
Antibiotics have been the traditional treatment for the skin disorder rosacea, but patients often develop antibiotic resistance to the drugs. A drug recently approved by the FDA, Oracea, contains a ... > more -
Biomedical Scientists Develop Computerized Stethoscope To Analyze Heart Murmurs
Scientists have developed a new tool that may eliminate unnecessary visits to a specialist by allowing doctors to examine and assess heart murmurs. The Zargis Acoustic Cardioscan first amplifies and ... > more -

GPS Navigation System Gives Acoustical Warnings
Human factors psychologists have teamed up with computer scientists to develop technology that can do the job of a seeing-eye dog -- help the blind walk around safely and without getting lost. The ... > more -
Cochlear Implants Work Better If Done On Both Ears
Unlike other acoustical devices such as hearing aids, which just amplify sounds, cochlear implants mimic what happens inside the ear, changing sound waves into electrical signals sent to the brain. ... > more -

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 -
MRIs Peek into the Brains of Synesthesia Patients
Cognitive neuroscientists have now documented hundreds of cases of synesthesia -- the condition in which one sense triggers the response of a different one. Using functional magnetic resonance ... > more
