Ex vivo MRI is a powerful tool for exploring brain tissue. This technique allows scientists to study the brain's structure and connections in great detail. It is used to understand how the brain is wired and how different parts connect. Unlike in vivo MRI, which looks at living tissue, ex vivo MR
Imagine trying to see something as small and complex as the bones in your ear. Doctors use special scans to get a good look. These scans are super important for both kids and adults. There are two main ways to make these scans even better: one is called hybrid iterative reconstruction (HIR), and the
Imagine a world where your food stays fresh for longer, and the packaging is eco-friendly. Sounds like a dream? Well, scientists have been working on making it a reality. They've been experimenting with tiny fibers made from plant materials and special compounds found in plants called polyphenols. T
Aging is more than just physical changes. It's a journey that deeply affects our minds and emotions, which experts call psychological well-being. To measure this, they use a tool called the Scales of Psychological Well-being (SPWB). This tool has 18 parts and was recently tested in German. The study
Blood clots, or thrombus, can be tricky to deal with. Traditional medicines often miss their mark and cause unwanted bleeding. So, scientists cooked up a clever solution using tiny particles called nanoparticles. These aren't your average nanoparticles; they're equipped with a special targeting syst
Glioblastoma is a tough brain tumor to deal with. It spreads quickly and often ignores medicine. Doctors have been looking for new ways to fight it. One promising method uses special light and tiny, smart particles. These particles are made from a type of polymer. They can glow and get hot when hit
Learning to handle feedback is a big part of getting better in breast imaging. It might feel tough at first, but it's super important. Trainees can use different ways to get feedback. They can look at how they do in self-assessments, check real-world patient results, get feedback from procedures, ta
First, let's talk about weightlifting. It's often praised for boosting brain health. But does it really help older adults keep their brains sharp? Researchers decided to find out. They looked at two groups of older adults. Both groups did weightlifting for a year. One group lifted heavier weights, t
Pineapples are a big hit for a reason. They're delicious and have a major impact on the economy. But timing is everything when it comes to picking them. It's not just about getting the best taste. It's also about making sure the fruit is perfect for selling or processing. So, how do we know when a p
Focal liver lesions (FLLs) are like tiny mysteries hiding in the liver. Doctors often use MRI scans to find and figure out what these mysteries are. Two special agents, gadobenate and gadoxetate, help make these MRI scans clearer. These agents are like superheroes that highlight different parts of t
