This historic acquisition reduces barriers that prevent people from taking control of their lifelong health. Full Body MRI scan now takes just 22 minutes instead of 60 minutes, costs $499 instead of over $1,500
Scientists at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) have leveraged artificial intelligence to transform a device designed to see tissues in the back of the eye into one sharp enough to make out individual cells. The technique provides imaging resolution that rivals the most advanced devices available and is cheaper, faster, and doesn’t require specialized equipment or expertise. The strategy has implications for early detection of disease and for the monitoring of treatment response by making what was once invisible now visible.
A University of Florida researcher has developed an open-source computer program that uses artificial intelligence to analyze videos of patients with Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders. The tool, called VisionMD, helps doctors more accurately monitor subtle motor changes, improving patient care and advancing clinical research.
U-Pump announced on social media that it reached a new milestone in its development of an AI-powered, reusable insulin patch pump.
Researchers designed MAIJU (Motor Assessment of Infants with a Jumpsuit) to solve these problems. The suit is based on multisensor measurements, which are used to make reliable and versatile measurements of children’s motion with the help of dedicated AI algorithms.
University of Virginia School of Medicine scientists have created a computational tool to accelerate the development of new disease treatments. The tool goes beyond current artificial intelligence (AI) approaches by identifying not just which patient populations may benefit but also how the drugs work inside cells.
Dr. George Shaker has huge hopes for a small radar device he developed with a team of researchers at the University of Waterloo. An engineer who has pursued the possibilities of radio waves for more than 20 years, Shaker envisions the installation of the silent, unobtrusive system almost everywhere people sit to help detect heart problems before they become life-threatening.
Using Nvidia and GE Healthcare technology, the robotic surgery system is intended to help doctors detect lung cancer earlier.
A technology developed by the Brazilian company brain4care has been shown to be able to measure absolute values of intracranial pressure (ICP) more accurately than existing non-invasive methods. This is the result of a study published in the journal npj Digital Medicine by researchers from the University of São Paulo in Brazil, the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom, Emory University in the United States, and the company itself.
