Medical Engineering

The development of medical equipment, products and technical procedures is characterized by high research and development costs in a variety of fields related to the study of human medicine.

innovations-report provides informative and stimulating reports and articles on topics ranging from imaging processes, cell and tissue techniques, optical techniques, implants, orthopedic aids, clinical and medical office equipment, dialysis systems and x-ray/radiation monitoring devices to endoscopy, ultrasound, surgical techniques, and dental materials.

Cold physical plasma kills corona viruses

A Greifswald research team from the Centre of Excellence ZIK plasmatis at the Leibniz Institute for Plasma Science and Technology e.V. (INP) was able to demonstrate for the first time…

Portable spectroscopy devices could soon become real

Less risk, less costs: New method for the detection of alcohols combines zero- to ultralow-field nuclear magnetic resonance with the SABRE-Relay hyperpolarization technique. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is an analytical…

Untangled blinking: Fluorescence patterns aid medical diagnostics

Researchers from Osaka University and collaborating partners have used single-molecule electron-transfer kinetics to identify point mutations in mRNA. This development might facilitate treatment of glioma and other diseases. Standard medical…

Tendon tissue plus parathyroid hormone reproduces a normal meniscus

Expected to improve results for meniscal reconstruction surgery. The knee meniscus is an important tissue that protects the joint; if the meniscus is damaged—by sports injury or aging–it often does…

Ultrathin dental camera inspired by insect-eye structure

Biologically inspired camera achieves diverse functional dental imaging with high dynamic range, 3D depth, and autofluorescence. Conventional dental photography technology has had a limitation in using inconvenient tools such as…

First completely robot-supported microsurgical operations on humans

A great success for robotic microsurgery not only in Münster but worldwide. A team led by Dr. Maximilian Kückelhaus and Prof. Tobias Hirsch from the Centre for Musculoskeletal Medicine at…
