World's Smallest Implantable, Rechargeable Spinal Cord Stimulation System Treats Chronic Pain
A new neuromodulation device to help people manage chronic pain provides an optimized experience with the ability to wirelessly charge as few as five times per year, the lowest recharge burden compared to other rechargeable spinal cord stimulation systems. More...20 Dec 2022
New Myocardial Infarction Treatment Patch Could Improve Heart Function
Physicians have successfully transplanted a highly integrable in vivo priming bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC) sheet based on the utilization of a thermos-responsive nanofiber membrane. Their work has attracted attention from academic circles for developing a human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) sheet specially designed for enhancement of an angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels from pre-existing vessels), which promoted cardiac repair when transplanted together with the BMSC sheet.

Soft, Robotic, and Implantable Ventilator Improves Lung Capacity for People with Diaphragm Dysfunction
A new proof-of-concept design by a team of engineers aims to one day boost the diaphragm’s life-sustaining function and improve lung capacity for people with diaphragm dysfunction. More...16 Dec 2022
AI-Driven Intraoperative CT Imaging System Sets New Standard in Lung Cancer Diagnostics
An AI-driven, intraoperative CT imaging system empowers bronchoscopists to biopsy from smaller, more difficult-to-access lung lesions at an earlier stage, thus maximizing the likelihood of an early diagnosis for lung cancer patients and improving odds for survival. More...15 Dec 2022
Radiation Protection System Reduces Entire Interventional Team’s Exposure in Hospital X-Ray Labs
A comprehensive, scatter radiation protection system protects the entire interventional team in hospital X-ray labs (cardiac catheterization, electrophysiology, interventional radiology, and operating rooms) from the harm of long-term exposure to scatter radiation. More...12 Dec 2022
