Sensor Creates Glucose Breathalyzer
GAINESVILLE, Fla., Jan. 25, 2010 – A new biomedical sensor could provide fresh, inexpensive diagnosis and treatment methods for people suffering from a variety of diseases. University of Florida engineers have d...
Frost & Sullivan Award: Naviscan
Feb 20, 2009 — Naviscan Inc. of San Diego has received the 2009 North American Frost & Sullivan Emerging Technology of the Year Award. The prize recognizes the company’s progress in developing a next-generation breast-specific PET scanner and adjunct biopsy...
The Doctor Will See You Now
Feb 1, 2009 — If the old saying is right and an ounce of prevention really is worth a pound of cure, then some of the latest medical imaging breakthroughs could represent tons of prevention and even more of cure. There are techniques with the potential to catch...
Aurora Receives FDA Clearance for Spectroscopy Technology
Nov 3, 2008 — Aurora Imaging Technology of North Andover, Mass., has received US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) clearance for their new spectroscopy technology. Aurora Imaging announced that the Aurora 1.5Tesla dedicated breast MRI (magnetic resonance...
The Advocate
Oct 1, 2008 — Dr. Stamatia Destounis is a radiologist at Elizabeth Wende Breast Care LLC and an associate clinical professor at the University of Rochester, both in Rochester, N.Y. She has worked with technology companies such as Siemens and Hologic Inc. and has...
Molecular Breast Imaging
ROCHESTER, Minn., Sept. 5, 2008 – Researchers have found a way to “light up” cancer hiding in dense breast tissue. In the largest-ever study to compare molecular breast imaging (MBI) to mammography, researchers at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., have shown that MBI can detect...
Biomagnetics Eyed for Tests
LONDON, March 4, 2008 -- A device that combines magnetic nanoparticles with an extremely sensitive magnetic microscope could make early detection of breast cancer more cost effective and easier to administer. The device was developed by a team from University College...
Sharper X-rays Developed
LAUSANNE, Switzerland, Jan. 22, 2008 -- Using novel x-ray optical components instead of sophisticated crystal optics has allowed dark-field images to be produced at wavelengths used in common medical and industrial imaging equipment. The dark-field images provide more detail than ordinary...
Medical Imaging Research Gets $3M From DoD
HOUSTON, Jan. 8, 2007 -- Rice University has received a $3 million award from the US Department of Defense for a five-year program to develop miniaturized molecular imaging technologies -- including microendoscope and needle-compatible fiber-optic systems -- for use in...
Researchers Combine Tiny Nanotubes, Antibodies to Detect Cancer Cells
Dec 7, 2005 — PHILADELPHIA and NEWARK, Del., Dec. 7 -- By coating the surfaces of tiny carbon nanotubes with monoclonal antibodies, biochemists and engineers at Jefferson Medical College and the University of Delaware can detect cancer cells in a tiny drop of...
Digital Mammogram Benefits Revealed
Sep 16, 2005 — WASHINGTON, Sept. 16 -- Preliminary results from a large, clinical trial of digital vs. film mammography show no difference in detecting breast cancer for the general population of women in the trial. However, women with dense breasts, who are pre-...
Imaging Startup Gets NIH Grant
May 13, 2005 — ROCHESTER, N.Y., May 13 -- Koning Corp., a Rochester-based imaging startup, announced it has received a $2.5 million grant from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to build a cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scanner for the early diagnosis...
Fiber Optic Probe Could Improve Breast Biopsy
Jul 15, 2004 — MADISON, Wisc., July 15 -- A new technology developed by a research group at the University of Wisconsin-Madison uses a fiber optic probe to increase the accuracy of breast cancer diagnoses by being a "third eye" during biopsies. Nimmi Ramanujam,...
New Breast Imaging Methods Tested
May 4, 2004 — HANOVER, N.H., May 4 -- Dartmouth physicians and engineers are collaborating to test three new imaging techniques to find breast abnormalities, including cancer. The techniques are electrical impedance spectral imaging (EIS), microwave imaging...
Spectrometer Looks for Cancer
Apr 1, 2003 — Breast cancer is the second leading cause of death among women, with 700,000 new cases diagnosed every year. X-ray mammography remains the most important means of diagnosing the disease, but its sensitivity depends on the size of the tumor....
