Duke Innovations Improve Accuracy Of MRI As Internal "Thermometer"
Duke University chemists say they have developed a new way to measure temperature changes inside the body with unprecedented precision by correcting a subtle error in the original theory underlying Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). view more (2008-10-17)
The Conflict of Reward in Depression
In Love and Death, Woody Allen wrote: "To love is to suffer-To be happy is to love. To be happy, then, is to suffer." The paradoxical merging of happiness and suffering can be a feature of depression. view more (2008-03-26)
MRI detects early heart damage in patients with sarcoidosis
To detect heart damage early in patients with the immune system disorder sarcoidosis, who are at elevated risk of dieing from heart problems, magnetic resonance imaging is twice as sensitive as conventional methods. view more (2006-11-13)
New theory explains enhanced superconductivity in nanowires
Superconducting wires are used in magnetic resonance imaging machines, high-speed magnetic-levitation trains, and in sensitive devices that detect variations in the magnetic field of a brain. view more (2006-10-19)
New MRI technique may identify cervical cancer early
Using high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with a special vaginal coil, a technique to measure the movement of water within tissue, researchers may be able to identify cervical cancer in its early stages, according to a new study being published in the November issue of Radiology. view more (2008-10-21)
Quantum Leap in Diagnosis of Disease
A state-of-the-art diagnosis system is now being introduced at the University of Bonn's Radiological Clinic: the first of its kind worldwide, it is a new type of high-field nuclear magnetic resonance tomography spectrometer which opens up completely new possibilities both for clinical application to patients, for clinical research and pure... view more...

Dancing atoms now understood
In developing a model to explain the motion of atoms in a magnetic field, scientists have overcome a decades-old obstacle to understanding a key component of magnetic resonance. view more (2008-12-02)
MU scientists 'see' how HIV matures into an infection
After improving the sensitivity of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), researchers at the University of Missouri actually watched the HIV-1 protease mature from an inactive form into an active infection. This process has never been directly visualized before. The findings appear today in the journal Nature. view more (2008-10-02)
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)
Researchers peg magnetism as key driver of high-temperature superconductivity
When it comes to superconductivity, magnetic excitations may top good vibrations. view more (2006-07-06)
UAB Scientists break the hard drive miniaturisation limit
Magnetic memory-based information storage systems are getting smaller and smaller, while their capacities are getting larger. However, there is a limit to how small they can get. If the tiny magnets used to store information are smaller than around five nanometres (millionths of a millimetre), vibrations caused by temperature can erase their... view more... (2003-07-10)
Magnetic nanoparticles navigate therapeutic genes through the body
Health professionals send genes and healthy cells on their way through the bloodstream so that they can, for example, repair tissue damage to arteries. view more (2009-03-05)
The white stuff: Marine lab team seeks to understand coral bleaching
With technology similar to that used by physicians to perform magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans, researchers from six institutions-including the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)-working at the Hollings Marine Laboratory (HML) in Charleston, S.C., are studying the metabolic activity of a pathogen shown to cause coral... view more...

Delft research increases understanding of Earth's magnetic field
Research recently conducted at Delft University of Technology marks an important step forward in understanding the origins of the Earth's magnetic field. The research findings are published this week in the scientific journal Physical Review Letters. view more (2007-03-12)
Russian Researcher Vladislav Ivanov Could Have Received The 2003 Nobel Prize In Medicine
The 2003 Nobel Prize laureates in Medicine and Physiology - Peter Mansfield and Paul Lautenbur - have won their prizes for inventing the magnetic resonance imaging method for precise diagnostics of various diseases. However, few people know that Vladislav Ivanov, lieutenant of the Soviet Army, contrived this method 13 years earlier. The interview... view more... (2003-10-31)
New understanding for superconductivity at high temperatures
An international research team has discovered that a magnetic field can interact with the electrons in a superconductor in ways never before observed. view more (2008-01-14)
How do the choline compounds change when apoptosis occurs?
Apoptosis is a programmed, active, highly selective mechanism of cell death. Abnormal regulation of apoptosis can lead to disorders such as cancer. The field of apoptosis research has undergone an explosion of new knowledge over the past decade. view more (2008-09-24)
Earth's magnetic field really did reverse itself
NWO researchers have developed an improved method of identifying the magnetic signals in old geological strata. The researchers used the new method to show that the earth's magnetic field really did reverse itself ten million years ago. Particles of iron in sediments orient themselves in accordance with the local magnetic field of the earth. As... view more... (2001-11-27)
Physicists set 'speed limit' for future superconducting magnet
A research team led by a Northwestern University physicist has identified a high-temperature superconductor — Bi-2212, a compound containing bismuth — as a material that might be suitable for the new wires needed to one day build the most powerful superconducting magnet in the world, a 30 Tesla magnet. view more (2007-02-12)
Hallucinations in schizophrenia linked to brain area that processes voices
For the first time, researchers using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have found both structural and functional abnormalities in specific brain regions of schizophrenic patients who experience chronic auditory hallucinations, according to a study published in the August issue of Radiology. view more (2007-07-31)
