A combined technique of liposuction and tummy tuck
Johns Hopkins biomedical engineers have teamed up with clinicians to create a new drug-delivery strategy for a type of central vision loss caused by blood vessel growth at the back of the eye, where such growth should not occur. In addition to testing a new drug that effectively stops such runaway vessel growth in mice, […]
Doctors at Henry Ford Hospital have created a new route to the heart to implant an artificial heart valve by temporarily connecting major blood vessels that do not normally intersect. In a July 3 operation on 79-year-old Viola Waller of Charlevoix, physicians performed a world-first cardiac procedure when it became evident that other means would […]
Radiography is widely used in diagnosing ankle injuries, with 85%
The ‘near-death experience’ reported by cardiac arrest survivors worldwide may be grounded in science, according to research at the University of Michigan Health System. University of Michigan researchers George Mashour, M.D., Ph.D. and Jimo Borjigin, Ph.D., provide the first scientific framework for near-death experiences. Whether and how the dying brain is capable of generating conscious […]
Researchers at Western University have furthered their game-changing neuroimaging techniques in communicating with patients believed to be in a vegetative state by connecting with an individual that has proved otherwise unresponsive for the past 12 years. Lorina Naci, a postdoctoral fellow from Western’s Brain and Mind Institute and her colleague Adrian Owen, the Canada Excellence […]
It is possible to see how advanced a bowel cancer is by looking at its metabolic ‘fingerprint’, according to new research. Bowel cancer is the third most common type of cancer globally, with over one million new cases diagnosed every year. Accurately determining the stage that a tumour has reached is crucial for deciding which […]
Transplant teams have long tried to match the size of donor lungs to the size of the recipient as closely as possible, concerned that lungs of the wrong size could lead to poor lung function and poor outcomes. But new Johns Hopkins-led research suggests that oversized donor lungs may instead be the best option for […]
A more precise method for determining bone marrow involvement in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL)
Tiny silicon crystals caused no health problems in monkeys three months after large doses were injected, marking a step forward in the quest to bring such materials into clinics as biomedical imaging agents, according to a new study. The findings suggest that the silicon nanocrystals, known as quantum dots, may be a safe tool for […]
