ADA SHAIKHNAG Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) researchers have developed 3D printed self-heating microfluidic devices, offering potential applications in affordable disease detection tools. MIT’s research team adopted multimaterial 3D printing, a cost-effective method, to create self-heating microfluidic devices in a single manufacturing step. This technique allows for customization, enabling engineers to design microfluidic devices with...
by The Spanish National Cancer Research Centre Stem cells have been holding great promise for regenerative medicine for years. In the last decade, several studies have shown that this type of cell, which in Spanish is called “mother cell” because of its ability to give rise to a variety of different cell types, can be...
OAK BROOK, Ill. – A 3D ultrasound system provides an effective, noninvasive way to estimate blood flow that retains its accuracy across different equipment, operators and facilities, according to a study published in the journal Radiology. Measures of blood flow are important in helping clinicians determine how much oxygen and nutrient-carrying blood is reaching organs...

Much of the greatest innovation in industries other than health care deploys technology-enabled approaches to making services more accessible and convenient and lower cost or higher quality. For example, companies such as Blockbuster Video, which provided what seemed like essential services, was supplanted by Netflix, which offered on-demand, personalized viewing of videos from the convenience...
OAK BROOK, Ill. – Women with mammographically detected breast lesions that are probably benign should have follow-up surveillance imaging at six months due to the small but not insignificant risk that the lesions are malignant, according to a new study published in the journal Radiology. The Breast Imaging and Reporting System (BI-RADS) was established by...
Half of over-65s suffer from dizziness and problems with balance. But some tests to identify the causes of such problems are painful and can risk hearing damage. Now, researchers from Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, have developed a new testing device using bone conduction technology, that offers significant advantages over the current tests.
