Security cameras able to 'see' through disguises and recognise faces in any light or at any angle are a step nearer thanks to new 3D imaging techniques being researched by the University of the West of England and Imperial College London.
Healing Lasers Design Company has introduced the first multi head cold laser of its kind. While cold lasers have been used for many years all over the world to help heal soft tissue injuries and wounds because they are believed to stimulate blood flow, produce endorphin releases, be anti-inflammatory, increase enzyme production, assist in cellular healing, to increase ATP (Adenosine TriPhospate) production as well as increased lymphatic flow and to speed the bodies naturally healing. Cold laser components like their new unit have traditionally costs thousands of dollars.
A new radiotherapy system that combines high-tech imaging with precision tumor-targeting capability is helping cancer specialists at Stony Brook University Medical Center treat patients. Those with medically inoperable tumors, at high-risk for surgery, or who do not want surgical treatment may benefit most from the ExacTrac® X-ray 6D System for image-guided radiotherapy. The system adds to patient options for stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), a technique that features high radiation doses with pinpoint precision to tumors.
Volcano Corporation, a provider of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and functional measurement (FM) products designed to enhance the diagnosis and treatment of vascular and structural heart disease, said today that it has reached a definitive agreement to acquire CardioSpectra, Inc., a privately-held company developing innovative Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) technology. CardioSpectra's unique OCT imaging system is expected to complement Volcano's existing product offerings and will further enhance Volcano's position as an imaging technology leader in the field of interventional medicin
Doctors at the Universities of Leicester and Nottingham are collaborating to use a magnetic resonance technique to image and quantify the air spaces inside the lungs. The results of their research may lead to a link between childhood disease and later degenerative lung disease (COPD).
Carl Zeiss and physicists Dr. Eric Betzig and Dr. Harald Hess have signed an exclusive license agreement for commercialization of Photo- activated Localization (PAL) microscopy. This new technique opens a new world of fluorescence microscopy, demonstrating for the first time in cells a resolution of approximately 20 nm. This is an order of magnitude higher than conventional fluorescence techniques such as confocal microscopy achieve.
Iris Diagnostics, a division of IRIS International, Inc. a leading manufacturer of urinalysis systems and consumables for use in hospitals and commercial laboratories worldwide, today announced that it has shipped its 1,000th iQ®200 Automated Urine Microscopy Analyzer for the international market. The analyzer, an iQ®200 ELITE™, was shipped to its distributor in Turkey and includes a commemorative plaque identifying it as the 1,000th international shipment.
Researchers at the University of St Andrews have developed a new technology that could enhance early detection of cancer and potentially save lives.
The University of Surrey welcomes the Government’s announcement today (3 December) that improved radiotherapy strategies are going to be at the forefront of government policy in the fight against cancer. This announcement is extremely timely, but it is extremely sad that the UK currently has no plans for the newest type of radiotherapy which uses charged particles rather than X-rays.
LumaSense Technologies, a leading provider of temperature and gas sensing solutions to industrial, semiconductor, optoelectronics, medical, and electric power industries, today announced the release of its Luxtron 800 series fiber optic temperature measurement systems for temperature monitoring in harsh EMI, RF, MRI, microwave and high voltage environments.
