Ultrasound proves safe alternative to biopsy in some breast masses
Researchers have reported that breast masses shown on ultrasound that are diagnosed as "probably benign" can be safely managed with imaging follow-up rather than biopsy, according to a study appearing in the July issue of Radiology. view more (2007-06-26)
Got inexpensive contrast agent? Milk plays new role in imaging
In a new twist on the slogan "milk does a body good," radiologists are testing use of the dairy staple as a contrast agent in gastrointestinal imaging exams-with excellent results. view more (2006-11-30)
Science Meets Art in a Joint Research Programme
Conservation applications for a versatile imaging system, developed by Greek physicists at the Foundation of Research and Technology in Crete, led by Professor Costas Fotakis, are being investigated in a joint Greek-British programme, funded by the British Council and the Greek Ministry for Development. view more (1999-12-21)
ANALYTICA 2004: Infrared Sensor is Kind to Costs and Environment
The IMM Institut für Mikrotechnik Mainz GmbH has developed an infrared sensor for the quality control of lubricants in machines. With this sensor, oil and its ageing can be monitored directly at the operating machine. Future fields of application are for example real-time monitoring of large motors, particularly in shipping or compressors.... view more... (2004-05-10)
K-State professor assists in war on terror with bomb detection research
The Marines are looking for a few good men ... to assist them in their efforts in the war on terrorism. A Kansas State University professor is one of those men. view more (2005-07-28)
Novel Non-Invasive Imaging Technology May Allow Precise Diagnosis of Coronary Artery Disease, Treatment Tailoring
A study focusing on a new non-invasive imaging technology—one that may enable more precise diagnosis of coronary artery disease and treatment tailoring in individual patients—was released by Israeli researchers at SNM's 53rd Annual Meeting June 3—7 in San Diego. view more (2006-06-08)
Microgrid Allows Simultaneous Study of Multiple Variables
Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory have developed a method for correlating the results of microscopic imaging techniques in a way that could lead to improved understanding, diagnosis, and possibly treatment of a variety of disease conditions, including Alzheimer's disease. view more (2007-10-11)
Pitt researchers see electron waves in motion for first time
Both the ancient art of stained glass and the cutting-edge field of plasmonics rely on the oscillation of electrons in nanosized metal particles. When light shines on such particles, it excites the electromagnetic fields on the metal's surface, known as "surface plasmons," and causes its electrons to oscillate in waves-producing the rich... view more...

Brain surgery, new light-emitting materials and medical imaging - all are covered in the December issue of Opto and Laser Europe
LASERS ON THE BRAIN A new, minimally-invasive tool that can completely remove a brain tumour through a small hole in the skull has been delivered to surgeons in Germany. Conventional techniques use lasers to destroy brain tumours by thermal effects. This can destroy healthy tissue, and increases the risk of toxic side effects because it does not... view more...

Research Breakthrough In Understanding Treatment-Resistant Depression
CLINICAL NEUROSCIENCE CENTRE: DARTFORD UK A pioneering research study using brain imaging has yielded new clues to help sufferers from severe depression who do not respond to conventional treatment. Around 5 million people in the UK experience depression at any one time. Whilst a number of successful treatments, both pharmacological and... view more... (2003-10-01)
Concurrent imaging of metabolic and electric signals in the heart
Cardiac rhythm disorders can result from disturbances in cardiac metabolism. These metabolic changes are tightly linked with specific cardiac electrophysiology (CEP) abnormalities, such as depressed excitability, impaired intra- and extracellular conductivities, wave propagation block, and alteration of conduction velocity, action potential... view more...

New guidelines emphasize use of breast MRI to supplement standard imaging
Updated guidelines for physicians that represent best practices for using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to newly diagnose breast cancer and to make treatment decisions for breast cancer were published today in the Journal of the National Comprehensive Cancer Network. view more (2009-02-17)
Molecular imaging enables earlier, individualized treatment of thyroid cancer
In a study to determine the diagnostic value of molecular imaging in nodal staging of patients with thyroid cancer, researchers were able for the first time to accurately distinguish between cancerous cells in regional lymph nodes and normal residual thyroid tissue directly after surgery. view more (2009-01-05)
One year in orbit for first DMC satellite - AlSAT-1
AlSAT-1, the first satellite launched for the international Disaster Monitoring Constellation (DMC), has completed one year of orbital operations. The satellite, built under a know-how transfer programme at Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd (SSTL), was launched on 28 November 2002 for Centre Nationale Techniques Spatiales in Algeria. The first... view more... (2004-01-15)
Brain imaging can predict effectiveness of cognitive behavior therapy for treating depression
Whether or not cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) will help a person recover from depression can be predicted through brain imaging. view more (2006-04-03)
Imaging experts perform cardiac scans by remote control
UCLA radiologists and Siemens Medical Solutions have developed remote-control software that enables an off-site imaging expert to operate a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machine via the Internet. view more (2006-10-25)

GMM, launched in 1995, have built their reputation on a portfolio of products that includes books, journals and websites. In book publishing they have grown to achieve UK... view more... (2003-12-19)
Nanoparticles cross blood-brain barrier to enable 'brain tumor painting'
Brain cancer is among the deadliest of cancers. It's also one of the hardest to treat. view more (2009-08-04)
Tech researchers help find new sub-atomic particle - shollis
Six Louisiana Tech researchers in the physics department played a role in discovering a new sub-atomic particle whose existence was announced this week. view more (2007-06-18)
Surprising results in teen study: adolescent risky behavior may signal mature brain
A new study using brain imaging to study teen behavior indicates that adolescents who engage in dangerous activities have frontal white matter tracts that are more adult in form than their more conservative peers. view more (2009-08-26)
