New test could aid children suffering from reflux disease
A nuclear medicine imaging test was used to confirm that children with respiratory problems may be more likely to develop gastroesophageal reflux disease, according to researchers at SNM's 55th Annual Meeting. view more (2008-06-17)
Narrow-band imaging increases specificity of early lung cancer detection
Research published in the September 2009 issue of the Journal of Thoracic Oncology has found that narrow-band imaging bronchoscopy increases the specificity of bronchoscopic early lung cancer detection and can serve as an alternative detection device. view more (2009-09-03)
Ceramic research reaches new heights
Materials scientists at the University of Wales Aberystwyth (UWA) are taking ceramics to new heights in order to determine the structure and stability of the materials which are used to construct aeroplane engines and the tiles for the space shuttle. Dr Rudi Winter and colleagues from the Department of Physics at UWA are using a unique... view more... (2002-03-05)
A picture of progress: PET imaging and biomarkers explored at ACS meeting
Doctors often have wished they could dispense with diagnostic guesswork and simply peer inside a human body to see the effects of a disease or if a particular medicine really works. view more (2005-09-01)
MIT model helps researchers 'see' brain development
Large mammals—humans, monkeys, and even cats—have brains with a somewhat mysterious feature: The outermost layer has a folded surface. Understanding the functional significance of these folds is one of the big open questions in neuroscience. view more (2007-04-10)
New medical ultrasound technology rides wave of the future
A fully digital 4D ultrasound system is set to provide a 'next generation' integrated solution for medical imaging applications, allowing practitioners to provide faster treatment and improve therapeutic success rates. view more (2005-05-12)

Fluorescence Diffuse Optical Tomography Provides High Contrast, 3-D Look at Breast Cancer
Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania have created the first three-dimensional optical images of human breast cancer in patients based on tissue fluorescence. view more (2007-06-14)
A Neural Mosaic of Tones
The brain filters what we hear. It can do this in part because particular groups of neurons react to specific frequencies of sound. view more (2006-06-23)
Geneticists tell ostrich farmers the secrets of sex
Research published in the online journal, BMC Biotechnology reports on a new, large-scale technique for distinguishing between male and female ostrich chicks using DNA extracted from feathers. This new technique will remove the need for invasive procedures currently in use to sex-type ostriches and allow breeders to discover the sex of their... view more... (2002-10-16)
CT scans: Too much of a good thing can be risky
Patients who undergo numerous CT scans over their lifetime may be at increased risk for cancer, according to a study published in the April issue of Radiology. view more (2009-03-31)
Duke engineers developing ultrasound devices combining 3-D imaging with therapeutic heating
Duke University engineers are developing technology that may enable physicians to someday use high frequency ultrasound waves both to visualize the heart's interior in three dimensions and then selectively destroy heart tissue with heat to correct arrhythmias. view more (2005-11-07)
Getting down to details
Dave Wilson was dissatisfied with blurry, low-sensitivity optical images of diseased tissues. So, four years ago he set out to create a better imager. view more (2009-09-29)
Cassini cameras spot powerful new lightning storm on Saturn
Following the recent detection of Saturnian radio bursts by NASA's Cassini spacecraft that indicated a rare and powerful atmospheric storm, Cassini imaging scientists have spotted the storm in an unlikely fashion: they looked for it in the dark. view more (2006-02-15)
The first 3 Teslas magnetic resonance imager for research
The University Hospital at the University of Navarra and the Applied Medicine Research Centre (CIMA) of the University has recently acquired a 3 Teslas magnetic resonance imager for joint use, the first for research applications in Spain. view more (2006-10-27)
Virtual biopsy cuts out need for diagnostic surgery
A non-invasive diagnostic tool to detect surface cancers quickly and painlessly using technology currently employed by gyms to calculate body composition has been developed by a QUT PhD medical physics researcher. view more (2008-01-18)
