This study used data from the Age, Gene/Environment Susceptibility Reykjavik (AGES-Reykjavik) cohort to evaluate whether trabecular texture and paraspinal muscle assessments improve the prediction of ...

A CT law that just was not enforced. It cost residents and the state. A CT law that just was not enforced. It cost residents and the state. CT physician-owned health network adds new practice and ...

TUESDAY, March 18, 2025 (HealthDay News) -- Low-dose CT chest scans could help detect pneumonia in at-risk patients while exposing them to small amounts of radiation, a new study says. Ultra-low ...

Then we performed BESS through a paraspinal approach to remove the gas-containing pseudocyst ... Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) of lumbar spine showed a right ...

This new study sought to determine if these common medications are associated with skeletal muscle loss. Researchers examined chest CT imaging data from the COPD Genetic Epidemiology (COPDGene) study ...

In patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), low-dose CT achieved higher sensitivity than chest x-ray for detecting lung metastases and second primary lung cancer, but patients ...

Artificial muscles could one day assist workers, aid mobility, or replace damaged tissue. However, replicating real muscle function remains a challenge. To match biological muscles, artificial ...

What truly sets this robot apart is its muscular system, featuring over 1,000 artificial muscles powered by Clone Robotics' proprietary "Myofiber" technology. The Myofiber system is a ...

Researchers are working on artificial muscles that can keep up with the real thing. They have now developed a method of producing the soft and elastic, yet powerful structures using 3D printing.

Methods We applied image registration techniques to paired inspiratory-expiratory CT scans and derived the Jacobian determinant of the deformation field between the two lung volumes to map local ...
