New super-resolution microscopy method approaches the atomic scale

Scientists at Weill Cornell Medicine have developed a computational technique that greatly increases the resolution of atomic force microscopy, a specialized type of microscope that “feels” the atoms at a…

‘Wonder material’ can be used to detect COVID-19 quickly, accurately

Researchers show a graphene-based sensor can detect SARS-CoV-2. Researchers at the University of Illinois Chicago have successfully used graphene — one of the strongest, thinnest known materials — to detect…

Gold standard for multiple sclerosis care

MHH neuroradiologist develops international guidelines for MRI imaging. Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system in younger adults. According to the German…

New super-resolution technique allows for more detailed brain imaging

A new imaging technique has the potential to detect neurological disorders–such as Alzheimer’s disease–at their earliest stages, enabling physicians to diagnose and treat patients more quickly. Termed super-resolution, the imaging…

X-ray Scanner Spots Cancers and Analyzes Drugs in Minutes

New technology could speed cancer diagnosis, ensure surgeons remove 100% of a tumor and inspect drugs for dangerous chemicals. Engineers at Duke University have demonstrated a prototype X-ray scanning machine…

Sharp vision with exchanged eye lens

LZH works on improved lens refilling. In eye surgery for cataract, the lens refilling method could allow to maintain or restore the lens’s accommodation of the lens, i.e. the ability…
