As a less invasive alternative to open-heart surgery, cardiac surgeons are increasingly accessing the heart from within using central venous catheters.

Researchers have designed a lightweight helmet with tiny LEGO-size sensors that scan the brain while a person moves.

Researchers have created a pioneering helmet equipped with miniature LEGO-sized sensors capable of scanning the brain while in motion.

Engineers have developed a bio-compatible ink that solidifies into different 3D shapes and structures by absorbing ultrasound waves. 

With the potential to make procedures safer, less invasive, and more accessible, the robotic catheter may pave the way for a new era in cardiac care.

International effort to improve the resolution of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for studying the human brain has led to an ultra-high resolution 7 Tesla scanner.

As cases of flu and COVID-19 start to creep up, there’s a way to get tests and treatments for both.

Eligible adults can now receive free at-home rapid tests, telehealth sessions and at-home treatments for both COVID and influenza through a newly expanded federal government program. Source: ABCNews
