Researchers use novel three-dimensional imaging technique
Using an innovative three-dimensional imaging technique, a team of UCLA researchers have tracked how Alzheimer's disease spreads through the hippocampus - the area of the brain linked with memory - in a pattern consistent with the known trajectory of neurofibrilliary tangle dissemination, an accumulation of diseased proteins in the brain cells. view more (2006-10-26)
New imaging technique could promote early detection of multiple sclerosis
Researchers from Purdue University have studied and recorded how myelin degrades real-time in live mice using a new imaging technique. Myelin is the fatty sheath coating the axons, or nerve cells, that insulate and aid in efficient nerve fiber conduction. In diseases such as multiple sclerosis, the myelin sheath has been found to degrade. view more (2007-06-28)
Imaging technique sheds new light on the composition of the brain of moderate cannabis users
Diffusion tensor imaging, a newly developed magnetic resonance imaging technique, could enable researchers to gain a better understanding of the effects of cannabis on the brain. view more (2006-05-08)
New developments in assessing fluid flows
Scientists at Oxford University are developing a new Doppler Global Velocimetry (DGV) technique that will enable three-dimensional fluid velocity fields to be imaged reliably and accurately. Over the last twenty years, a number of techniques have been explored to enable clear imaging of fluid flows, with the most advantageous being those that are... view more... (2002-07-03)
U of Minnesota researcher develops brain-scanning process that holds promise for epilepsy treatments
University of Minnesota McKnight professor and Director of Center for Neuroengineering Bin He has developed a new technique that has led to preliminary successes in noninvasive imaging of seizure foci. view more (2009-05-20)
Fetal brain imaging
A modified technique that uses the eyes as the line of reference means a 50 percent reduction in the time necessary to take MRI images of the fetal brain. view more (2005-10-03)
New imaging method lets scientists 'see' cell molecules more clearly
Scientists have always wanted to take a closer look at biological systems and materials. From the magnifying glass to the electron microscope, they have developed ever-increasingly sophisticated imaging devices. view more (2009-01-21)
New technology useful for soft-tissue imaging in interventional radiology procedures
Soft-tissue cross-sectional imaging acquired on a flat panel C-arm fluoroscopic unit located in the interventional radiology area is feasible and useful for interventional radiology procedures, avoiding the necessity of sending patients out to a CT scanner. view more (2007-05-07)
NEW TECHNIQUE SHOWS DEATH OF HEART CELLS IN HEART-ATTACK PATIENTS (P 209)
In this week's issue of THE LANCET, researchers from the Netherlands describe a new imaging technique capable of pinpointing areas of cell death in the hearts of patients who have had an acute myocardial infarction (heart attack). In acute myocardial infarction, the blood supply to part of the heart is cut off. When blood flow is restored, heart... view more... (2000-07-12)
Pioneering research could make UK a world leader
Speculative research being pioneered at Northumbria University could make major medical advances in screening patients in the future. Dr David Smith from the School of Engineering and Technology is developing a microwave imaging system which would replace X-rays. The work, currently under patent, seeks to develop a technique to allow... view more... (2003-11-13)
Innovative 3D-imaging technique captures brain damage linked to Alzheimer's disease
Using an advanced three-dimensional mapping technique developed by UCLA researchers, the team analyzed magnetic resonance imaging data from 24 patients with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and 25 others with mild Alzheimer's disease. view more (2007-10-12)
New chemical imaging technique could help in the fight against atherosclerosis, suggests research
A new chemical imaging technique could one day help in the fight against atherosclerosis, suggests research published in the August 2009 edition of the Journal of the Royal Society Interface. view more (2009-07-31)
Laser technique has implications for detecting microbial life forms in Martian ice
An innovative technique called L.I.F.E. imaging used successfully to detect bacteria in frozen Antarctic lakes could have exciting implications for demonstrating signs of life in the polar regions of Mars. view more (2009-10-02)
New research lights up chronic bacterial infection inside bone
A new report demonstrates how a sensitive imaging technique gives scientists the upper hand in seeking out bacteria in chronic infections. view more (2008-12-23)
SMART-1 uses new imaging technique in lunar orbit
ESA's SMART-1 spacecraft has been surveying the Moon's surface in visible and near-infrared light using a new technique, never before tried in lunar orbit. view more (2005-12-27)
New technique improves outcome for living donor liver transplants
The University of Alberta Hospital (UAH) is one of only a few centers in Canada that perform living donor liver transplantation, a surgical procedure developed in the late 1980s that expands the organ donor pool. About 80 liver transplants are done a year in Alberta, 10 of those being living-donor. view more (2008-03-19)
Seismic research without artificial source
Researchers at TU Delft have made progress in the theoretical foundation of a special subsoil imaging technique. This technique could be used to chart underground mineral resources, it is called "acoustic daylight imaging". The method uses natural acoustic signals, already present in the earth, to create an image of the subsurface... view more... (2004-12-21)
Lung scintigraphy more reliable than CTA in excluding pulmonary embolism in pregnant patients
A medical imaging procedure known as lung scintigraphy may be more reliable than pulmonary CT angiography (CTA) for identifying or excluding pulmonary embolism (PE) in pregnant patients. view more (2009-10-21)
Elasticity imaging identifies cancers and reduces breast biopsies
A new ultrasound technique allows radiologists to accurately distinguish benign from malignant breast lesions. Using elasticity imaging, researchers correctly identified both cancerous and harmless lesions in nearly all of the cases studied. view more (2006-11-28)
New molecular imaging techniques may lead to advances in disease treatment
A promising new technique has been developed that will enable more accurate non-invasive positron emission tomography (PET) imaging of new cells injected into the body, according to researchers at SNM's 55th Annual Meeting. view more (2008-06-17)
