A team of researchers have created a 'liver on a chip,' a model of liver tissue that replicates the metabolic variations found throughout the organ.

With most US adults owning a smartphone, and the rise in miniaturized sensors that are used for remote health monitoring, mobile health is experiencing a boom.

Dr. Gordana Vunjak-Novakovic and her colleagues have managed to create living bone from stem cells. First, they made a CT scan to create a 3-D image of each pig’s jaw. From cow bone, they sculpted a “scaffold” — a three-dimensional copy of the pig bone.

A new phase 1 clinical trial evaluated the differences between pre-operative prone and supine MRI exams in 12 women undergoing lumpectomy for breast cancer.

For the first time, researchers have grown living bone grown to precisely replicate the original anatomical structure, using autologous stem cells.

Study describes the use of restriction spectrum imaging as a biomarker that enhances the ability of MRI to differentiate aggressive cancer from benign tumors.

Scientists are pushing the limits of a super-resolution microscopy technique, opening new pathways to illuminating individual cell processes in living tissue.

Case Western Reserve University will open a new center designed to develop evaluation technology and set standards for testing and improving engineered cartilage that could one day replace a variety of prosthetic devices.

UCSD team developed a wearable device that measures and transmits electrical heart signals and levels of lactate, a chemical correlating with physical exertion.

Researchers develop a way to prepare mesenchymal stem cells leading to the production of more native stem cells, and label them with an iron-oxide nanoparticle.
