Bioengineers Combine Mathematical Equations, Data to Simulate Surgeries
A new hi-tech method takes the guesswork out of cardiovascular surgery. Using mathematical equations, bioengineers build a personalized computer model of each heart patient, then perform the surgery ... > more -
Cardiologists Employ Biomedical Engineering to Safeguard Heart Patients
To prevent strokes in at-risk patients who suffer from atrial fibrillation, an abnormal heart rhythm, researchers have devised a mechanical alternative to common drug treatments. In the procedure, ... > more -
Engineers Design Improved Padding for Football Players
Engineers have developed more protective padding for football players. Unlike traditional padding, the new putty-like material can be molded into protective gear to fit a player's body and better ... > more -
Doctors Combine Cell Biology, Endocrinology to Eliminate Insulin Implants
Some diabetes patients who cannot live without insulin injections now have a new option: a transplant of islet cells, which produce insulin in the body. Drawing upon advances in cell biology and ... > more -
Ergonomists Reduce Repetitive Stress with Computer-Mouse Alternative
An alternative to the mouse, the SpacePilot 3D motion controller combines programmable keys with a circular controller that can sense and adapt to the user's needs. In a recent study, ergonomists ... > more -
Urologists Use Optics, Chemistry to Catch Small Tumors
Some bladder cancer tumors are so small, surgeons can't see them. Urologist Edward Messing is using a new liquid dye that reacts to light to help him see all the small bladder tumors that might have ... > more -
