The latest advance in wearable robotic technology promises to solve a 200-year-old problem by revolutionizing the fit of prosthetic limbs, transforming the lives of millions of amputees worldwide.
Researchers at the University of Houston, in collaboration with Baylor College of Medicine, are developing new devices for treating children with hyperleukocytosis, a condition that develops when the body has an extremely high number of white blood cells, often due to leukemia.
Monogram Technologies secured 510(k) clearance for its robotic knee replacement system
The body you inhabit is made up of lots of moving parts that need to communicate with each other.
Some of this communication – in the nervous system, for example – takes the form of bioelectrical signals that propagate through the body to trigger the appropriate response.
Moon Surgical announced today that it received FDA clearance for ScoPilot, a Nvidia-enabled platform for its Maestro surgical robot.
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.
When a person’s hearing and vision are uncompromised and function at a relatively high level, the human brain is able to take in various sights and sounds from any environment and seamlessly allow said person to perceive what’s happening around them.
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.
Brain implants hold immense promise for restoring function in patients with paralysis, epilepsy and other neurological disorders. But a team of researchers at Case Western Reserve University has discovered that bacteria can invade the brain after a medical device is implanted, contributing to inflammation and reducing the device’s long-term effectiveness.
