Lund University's organic electrodes are a breakthrough against tumors and nerve injuries.
A weight loss aid (not a magic wand): Allurion inflates like a gastric balloon without surgery, and goes away after work.
The shape of the snakes is by far the most promising for flexible robotics. Here are the latest developments and future prospects.
First phase of testing for a new drug based on monoclonal antibodies: rectal cancer "totally eliminated" in 100% of patients.
An interactive projection system allows the surgeon to see images projected directly on the patient. A step towards AR surgery
Front Rescue is a real portable emergency operating room, which can be placed directly on the patient. Here is the concept.
KitoTech raises funds for its devices, special patches that allow a do-it-yourself suture without resorting to surgery
Reviews from the scientific community highlight an increasing use of microsurgery in the medical field over the years. An innovative method, without a doubt. Thanks to the use of particular robotic engineering tools, it allows complex interventions to be performed with maximum precision thanks to minimal incisions and low invasiveness. Incisions that would be challenging using traditional surgery. These are technologies that have often been at the center of positive opinions and reviews from large healthcare clinics. Among these are… Read more
Electrodes that enhance the brain will soon be like "plastic surgery of intelligence" and will allow us to obtain cybernetic powers: in fact we will be cyborgs, scientists will implant artificial intelligence directly into our heads. Today, electrodes that deliver impulses to the brain are able to stabilize patients with seizures: the results are surprisingly promising. Soon the brain-computer interface will allow radical treatments even for psychological disorders such as depression. Raising the mind Kelly and Zach Weinersmith, couple at work and in life… Read more
“I try to take precautions. I don't turn on too many lights, take shorter showers, or anything. I do what I can. But in my profession it is a very simple gesture that can have a gigantic impact."
At Pennsylvania State University they developed a technique to 3D print living human skin directly onto wounds. New possibilities for facial reconstructive surgery and hair transplants.
Robotic surgeons promise less invasive surgeries and faster recovery, but their real impact is yet to be proven and their cost remains a barrier for many hospitals.
The new pacemaker, thinner than a hair and powered by light, promises revolutions in heart surgery with fewer complications.
