MU brain imaging center provides research for autism, schizophrenia and Parkinson's disease
Recently, the University of Missouri Department of Psychological Sciences introduced an addition to their field of research with the opening of the Brain Imaging Center (BIC). view more (2008-10-17)
New coil to make magnetic resonance (MR) imaging easier
Oxford University researchers have devised a novel coil design for magnetic resonance (MR) application, devised specifically for deep organ MR where sensitive imaging and spectroscopy have been previously difficult. Deep organ magnetic resonance requires maximised sensitivity and magnetic field homogeneity over a relatively large field of view... view more... (2003-01-24)
Researchers create smaller, brighter probe tailored for molecular imaging and tumor targeting
Researchers have developed a new generation of microscopic particles for molecular imaging, constituting one of the first promising nanoparticle platforms that may be readily adapted for tumor targeting and treatment in the clinic. view more (2008-12-23)
Faster, more precise MRI for the medical world
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) revolutionised the medical world two decades ago, providing doctors with an unparalleled view inside the human body. Now, MRI-MARCB has taken MRI to a new level with a system that enhances image quality, reduces scan time and improves diagnosis. view more (2004-09-24)
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)
Coronary imaging techniques helps to identify plaques likely to cause heart attacks
Late-breaking results from the PROSPECT clinical trial shed new light on the types of vulnerable plaque that are most likely to cause sudden, unexpected adverse cardiac events, and on the ability to identify them through imaging techniques before they occur. view more (2009-09-25)
Jefferson Scientists See Breast Cancer Gene Activity from Outside the Body
Researchers at Jefferson Medical College and Jefferson's Kimmel Cancer in Philadelphia have used PET imaging to see hyperactive cancer genes inside breast tumors in laboratory animals, marking the first time such gene activity has been observed from outside the body. view more (2007-11-29)
Every moment counts: Predicting treatment responses earlier for brain tumor patients
Using metabolic or molecular imaging to measure brain tumor patients' response to treatment is a powerful predictor of survival, notes a first-of-its-kind study presented at the 54th Annual Meeting of SNM, the world's largest society for molecular imaging and nuclear medicine professionals. view more (2007-06-04)
New research suggests that recognising early impairments may make Alzheimer's a treatable disease
Alzheimer's Disease need no longer be a death sentence but will become more treatable, if detected in its early stages. Evidence on brain scans, in conjunction with performance on psychological test showing mild cognitive impairments (MCI) like slight memory loss, pinpoints more people at risk of developing Alzheimer's Disease. A study at SCP will... view more... (1999-03-16)
CT and MRI accurate for pre-transplant evaluation of patients with cirrhosis
CT and MRI are highly accurate at determining which patients would be optimal candidates for liver transplantation, says a recent study. view more (2007-05-07)
Seeing what we are thinking
At last we can see ourselves thinking, using the technique known as functional brain imaging (fMRI), and some of the exciting developments in this field were described in a series of papers presented today, Thursday 29 March, at The British Psychological Society's Centenary Annual Conference, held at the SECC, Glasgow. Dr Adrian Owen, of the... view more... (2001-03-26)
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)
Appropriateness criteria issued for cardiac computed tomography, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging
he American College of Cardiology Foundation (ACCF) along with key specialty and subspecialty societies have released Appropriateness Criteria for two relatively new clinical cardiac imaging modalities, cardiac computed tomography (CCT) and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR). view more (2006-08-08)
Nanomicroscopy reveals the collective transport of gold atoms in real-time
Researchers at Delft University of Technology used a High Resolution Electron Microscope to observe in real-time the collective transportation of gold atoms in a thin layer. view more (2007-02-06)
CT scans better than X-rays when detecting abnormalities in patients with H1N1 virus
Computed tomography (CT) scans are better than standard radiography (X-rays) in showing the extent of disease in patients with the H1N1 virus. view more (2009-10-21)
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)
New imaging technique reveals the atomic structure of nanocrystals
A new imaging technique developed by researchers at the University of Illinois overcomes the limit of diffraction and can reveal the atomic structure of a single nanocrystal with a resolution of less than one angstrom (less than one hundred-millionth of a centimeter). view more (2009-02-19)
New imaging method shows whether treatment for advanced prostate cancer is working
Researchers at the University of Michigan Comprehensive Cancer Center have identified a new imaging technique that can measure the effectiveness of treatment for prostate cancer that has spread to the bones. The technique involves measuring diffusion of water within tumors. view more (2007-04-16)
Breakthrough Computer Chip Lithography Method Developed at RIT
A new computer chip lithography method under development at Rochester Institute of Technology has led to imaging capabilities beyond that previously thought possible. view more (2006-02-13)
