A large international team of micro-engineers, medical technologists, and neurosurgeons, has designed, built and tested a new type of probe that can be used to take pictures from inside arteries in ...

Cells sitting side by side in the same tissues are not identical. Each cell carries its own subtly different chemical ...

Multimodal molecular imaging probes are integrated agents designed to combine two or more imaging modalities within a single molecular construct, thereby providing complementary information on ...

Microendoscopes are the cornerstone of modern medical diagnostics - they allow us to see what we could not even describe two decades ago. The technology is constantly improving, with ICTER scientists ...

Scientists used positron emission tomography (PET) with edaravone, a drug used to treat ALS, to detect oxidative stress, which leads to brain damage, offering a clear path to detecting neurological ...

Researchers have shown it is possible to image small animal tissue clearly to several hundred micrometers using multi-probe imaging, reports a recent study in Scientific Reports. This technique could ...

Ishikawa, Japan - From the discovery of microorganisms in the field of biology to imaging atoms in the field of physics, microscopic imaging has improved our understanding of the world and has been ...

Ultrasound is used to diagnose many diseases in the abdominal cavity. A new study conducted at the University of Leipzig Medical Center and supported by the Helmholtz Institute for Metabolism, Obesity ...

A new fluorescent imaging probe can for the first time objectively and non-invasively measure loss of smell, clinically known as anosmia. Targeting the olfactory nerve, the new tool has potential to ...

To understand the brain better, we need new methods to observe its activity. That is at the heart of a molecular engineering project, spearheaded by two research groups at the European Molecular ...

A depth-compensated diffractive optical element photoacoustic microscope enables more uniform photoacoustic imaging across tissue depths.
