Gastroenterologists Use Optics To Detect Early Stages Of Colon Cancer
Biomedical engineers have developed a new technique to detect colon cancer. A thin optical fiber shines light onto the interior of the colon. Computer analysis of the backscattered light indicates if ... > more -
Cardiac Electrophysiologists Make MRIs Safe For People With Pacemakers
Biomedical Engineers found a way to prevent pacemakers from confusing the signals sent out by MRI machines with an actual heart emergency. Decreasing the strength of the electromagnetic field helps, ... > more -
Dermatologists Discover Sun Protection Under The Sea
Dermatologists recognize the benefits of a compound called astaxanthin. Found in red ocean plants and animals such as salmon, astaxanthin is the most effective and efficient free radical sponge in ... > more -
Marine Biotechnologists Treat Cancer With Mud-loving Ocean Bacteria
Biomedicine scientists identified and sequenced the genes of a bacteria called Salinispora tropica. It produces anti-cancer compounds and can be found in ocean sediments off the Bahamas. A product ... > more -
Engineers Measure Blood Alcohol Content With Spectroscopy
Using optical technology, engineers created a way to measure the amount of alcohol in a driver’s skin. They use near-infrared absorption spectroscopy to measure blood alcohol content. The light ... > more -
Electrical Engineers And Medical Technologists Create Easier Way To Diagnose Diabetes
Endocrinologists, engineers, and microbiologists worked together to create a new testing method for diabetes. It projects light into the skin in order to measure the presence of advanced glycation ... > more -
Neurosurgeonýs Drive Propels Him From Border Fence To Faculty
Physician scientist Alfredo Quinones has come a long way since illegally entering the United States. Today he is a faculty member at Johns Hopkins University. Quinones is a respected brain surgeon ... > more -
Molecular Biologists Devise Strategy To Starve Brain Tumors
Brain tumor researchers have found that brain tumors arise from cancer stem cells living within tiny protective areas formed by blood vessels in the brain. Killing those cells is a promising ... > more -
Pediatricians Reduce Ear Infections By Vaccinating Children
Infectious disease experts have completed clinical trials on a vaccine designed to eliminate chronic ear infections. The vaccine works on 7 pneumococcal bacterial strains that cause ear infections. ... > more -
Radiologists Use Digital Tomosynthesis To Produce 3-d Image Of Breast
Radiologists have devised a better way to perform a mammogram, called digital tomosynthesis. An X-ray tube moves in an arc around the breast, capturing several images. The information is then sent to ... > more
