Wearable EEG patch records stable brain signals over 24 hours, including sleep
Reliably recording brain activity over many hours has so far been fraught with technical and practical challenges. While traditional electroencephalography (EEG) systems provide meaningful data, they are often uncomfortable and typically limited to controlled testing environments. Is it even possible to record EEG signals with good signal quality in everyday situations?
Sensonics launches human feasibility study for transmitter-free Eversense CGM
Senseonics (NYSE: SENS) has launched its first clinical study of a transmitter-free version of its Eversense 365 continuous glucose monitor.
Implantable device uses ultrasound to improve drug delivery to the brain
This targeted approach could offer a way to prevent the recurrence of aggressive brain tumors.
FDA clears Coreline Soft’s AVIEW Aorta Metrics software
The regulatory clearance brings Coreline Soft’s total to 13 FDA 510(k) clearances and broadens its chest AI portfolio.
RunStar introduces new wireless blood pressure monitor
The LoopGo integrates the monitoring unit directly into an adjustable arm cuff, eliminating external tubes and cabling.
Elucid cardio imaging tech wins FDA clearance

Wireless neural chip tracks brain changes in real time after Alzheimer’s drug administration
A joint research team led by KAIST has used a small, implantable neural chip to wirelessly monitor real-time changes in a neurotransmitter involved in memory and learning after an Alzheimer’s drug has been administered.
Ultrasonic technology enables earlier stress-fracture detection
Tibial stress fractures are among the most common overuse injuries affecting military personnel, but they can be difficult to identify in their earliest stages. Small stresses in the bone may develop before an injury becomes apparent through conventional diagnostic tools, creating a window of opportunity for earlier detection to enable intervention.
