Detecting Asthma
Radiologists developed a new
method for viewing the lungs
of asthma sufferers. The
method uses a polarized
helium-3 gas--making it
visible during an MRI. The
patient inhales the helium-3
and undergoes an MRI, where

Plant Biologists And Immunochemists Develop Hypoallergenic Alternative To Latex
Plant biologists and immunochemists developed a way to produce rubber from a desert plant called guayule. The plant contains a natural rubber alternative without the proteins that trigger allergic ... > more -
Interventional Cardiologists Reduce Risk Of Stents By Magnetizing Endothelial Cells
Interventional cardiologists used magnetic particles to accelerate the process of healing after the placement of a stent. To do this, they extract cells from the interior of a patient's blood ... > more -
Engineers Create A Strong But Lightweight Isotruss Bike Using Carbon Fibers
Engineers used elements of architecture and geometry to create a strong but lightweight triangle-based isotruss bicycle frame. To make a road bike or mountain bike, the isotruss is first wound with ... > more -
Electrical And Computer Engineers Design Wheelchair Controlled By A Magnet On The User's Tongue
Electrical and computer engineers designed a system based on magnets that enables disabled persons to use the tongue to control the movement of a wheelchair. Movement of the magnetic tracer attached ... > more -
Oral Biologists Use Chemistry To Formulate Cavity Fighting Mints
Oral biologists formulated a mint that fights cavities with an ingredient called Cavistat. Cavistat contains two main components that protect the teeth. First, the amino acid arginine metabolizes ... > more -
Botanists Develop 'Antifreeze' Spray for Plants
Botanists developed a spray that, when misted over a plant, will help it endure temperatures 2.2 to 9.4 degrees Fahrenheit colder than it would without the spray, depending upon the species. The ... > more -
Ergonomists Find New Tires Provide More Control When Replaced In Rear
Ergonomists found that when replacing a vehicle's tires, the two newest tires should be placed in the rear in order to avoid oversteer and hydroplaning. Oversteer is when the rear tires slip out, ... > more -
Podiatrists Suggest Healing Foot Pain In Order To Fix Golf Swing
Effective golf swings require a stable base, which podiatrists say is difficult to establish when a golfer's feet have sustained injuries. When golfers' feet hurt, they cannot properly brace them. ... > more -
