Biochemists Develop Proteomic Test For Breast Cancer
Biochemists look at 22 protein biomarkers to distinguish patients with breast cancer from those without it. The early detection test complements mammograms and is most applicable to women who are at ... > more -
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 -
Cardiac Surgeons Install Tiny Temporary Pump Inside Heart
Cardiologists weave an eight gram pump through an artery in the groin into the left ventricle, where it pumps up to five liters of blood per minute. This temporary device assists the heart as it ... > 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 -
Mechanical Engineers Design System To Retrain Motor Pathways After Strokes
Using a technology called haptics, mechanical engineers can design physical therapies that reestablish motor pathways broken down by strokes. A motorized joystick guides patients to move their hands ... > 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 -
Hearing And Acoustics Researcher's Mannequin Rocks To Test Safe Volume Levels
Otology research shows that many teens and adults set their headphones at volumes that can cause hearing damage. Listeners set their headphones at a preferred volume, then place them on a mannequin ... > more
