Biomedical and genetic engineers at Duke University and the Albert Einstein College of Medicine have developed a technique that naturally increases the presence of a light-sensitive molecule ...

Our electronic record system allows only one measurement for a pressure injury. How do I capture a deep tissue injury that has an open area within it? Medical records should always capture the full ...

A new device that uses light to non-destructively image tissue could revolutionize cartilage and tissue transplant surgery, laying the groundwork for osteoarthritis treatment. Published Sept. 9 in ...

For decades, doctors and researchers have faced a persistent challenge in medical imaging: seeing deep into the body often means sacrificing fine detail, while sharper images typically can’t reach as ...

Obtaining clearer and more detailed microscopic images deep within tissue has become a rich area of research in fields ranging from adaptive optics to photodynamic therapy. Visualising biological ...

The National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel redefined the definition of a pressure ulcer and the stages of pressure ulcers in 2007, including the original 4 stages and adding 2 stages on deep tissue ...

Existing super-resolution techniques still face considerable challenges in complex deep tissue environments. For example, Stimulated Emission Depletion (STED) microscopy relies on a doughnut-shaped ...

Laser treatment is an emergent therapy for many conditions including neuropathy. It stimulates nerve cells and promotes regeneration, helping alleviate neuropathy symptoms. There is much controversy ...

Rolfing is a type of deep tissue manipulation that aims to relieve tension. Proponents state that it reorganizes connective tissue, or fascia, resulting in health benefits. However, there is a lack of ...
