Collaborate Disseminate
More than 55 percent of medical imaging devices – including MRIs, XRays and ultrasound machines – are powered by outdated Windows versions, researchers warn. Continue reading BlueKeep Flaw Plagues Outdated Connected Medical Devices
It looks like the third decade of the 21st century is off to a bit of a weird start, at least in the middle of the United States. There, for the past several weeks, mysterious squads of enormous multicopters have taken to the night sky for reasons unknown. Witnesses on …read more
A completely new category of microscopy has been invented by researchers in the US. Dubbed DNA microscopy, the technique tags RNA molecules with a range of DNA “barcodes” which in turn flag the identity and location of the molecules, even whe… Continue reading DNA microscopy offers a new way to image molecules
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a great tool for diagnosing disease in different organs and tissues, but it can be costly and cumbersome. Now, engineers at the Boston University Photonics Center have developed a new device, small enough f… Continue reading Magnetic metamaterial amplifies MRI for clearer images in less time
One of the vast untapped potentials of medicine is the access to imaging equipment. A billion people have difficulty getting access to an x-ray, and that says nothing about access to MRIs or CAT scans. Over the past few years, [Jean Rintoul] has been working on a low-cost way to …read more

We live in a world where anyone can build a CT machine. Yes, anyone. It’s made of laser-cut plywood and it looks like a Stargate. Anyone can build an MRI machine. Of course, these machines aren’t really good enough for medical diagnosis, or good enough to image anything that’s alive for that matter. This project for the Hackaday Prize is something else, though. It’s biomedical imaging put into a package that is just good enough to image your lungs while they’re still in your body.
The idea behind Spectra is to attach two electrodes to the body (a chest cavity, …read more
Cloudian, a company that specializes in helping businesses store petabytes of data, today announced that it has raised a $94 million Series E funding round. Investors in this round, which is one of the largest we have seen for a storage vendor, include Digital Alpha, Fidelity Eight Roads, Goldman Sachs, INCJ, JPIC (Japan Post Investment Corporation), NTT […] Continue reading Storage provider Cloudian raises $94M
This new technique gives scientists a whole new perspective on the body’s insides. Continue reading Scientists Made Mice That Are See-Through, Shrunken, and Glow in the Dark
