Neurologists Use GPS For The Brain As Guide In Surgery
Neurosurgeons' jobs are made easier by a 3-D CT scan produced by an advanced imaging system. It produces a computerized image of blood vessels and surrounding soft tissue, which can be rotated for ... > more -
Acoustic Device Allows Sound To Travel Through Bones
Otolaryngologists develop a new, implantable hearing aid. It works with a transmitter worn behind the ear that sends sound vibrations from her deaf side through the skull to her good ear. It's ... > more -
Psychologists Use fMRI To Understand Ties Between Memories And The Imagination
Psychologists have found that thought patterns used to recall the past and imagine the future are strikingly similar. Using functional magnetic resonance imaging to show the brain at work, they have ... > more -
Acoustic Study Shows Safe Listening Levels
Loud, sustained sound can damage tiny hairs in the cochlea, and yet 80 percent of people listen to personal music devices at dangerous levels above background noise, a study by acousticians shows. ... > more -
Physiologists Investigate The Role Of Perception In Motion Sickness
The cause of motion sickness is being investigated by a researcher with a new idea: that the cause is movement, not perceptual differences. A series of motion-sickness-inducing tests shows that those ... > 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 -
Sea Urchins' Genetics Add To Knowledge Of Cancer, Alzheimer's And Infertility
Researchers are using the sea urchins to study and understand diseases like cancer, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and muscular dystrophy. Although they are invertebrates, the creatures ... > more -
Computer Scientists Devise Tool For Visualizing Single Organs
With MRI or CT scans, clinicians have to identify and extract the anatomy out of cross-sections views of the body. Computer scientists have created a new interactive tool that can examine scans 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
