Assistant Professor of Biomedical Engineering Yi Xue works on 2P-FOCUS, a new two-photon microscopy system, in her lab. The system promises novel insights into biological features that were once only ...

Bio: Seemantini Nadkarni is an Associate Professor at the Wellman Center for Photomedicine at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School with over 20 years of experience in innovating ...

Researchers at the University of Arizona have invented a device that for the first time allows neurosurgeons, who use microscopes extensively while operating, to see blood flowing inside vessels and ...

German scientists successfully revived frozen mouse brain tissue after a week, proving memory functions survive cryopreservation for the first time.

Acoustic microscopy and impedance analysis have emerged as pivotal tools in the non‐invasive investigation of biological tissues. By utilising high-frequency sound waves, these techniques deliver ...

A classical way to image nanoscale structures in cells is with high-powered, expensive super-resolution microscopes. As an alternative, MIT researchers have developed a single-step technique for ...

Freshly dissected tissue (lower left) and its pathology-prepared slide with identified tumor regions by a pathologist (upper left), and a pseudo-color image of hyperspectral dark-field microscopy ...

The researchers demonstrated the utility of their technique on a slice of a mouse brain, 200 microns (0.2 millimeters) in thickness. First, they made their tissue sample see-through using a tweaked ...

The brain relies on real-time delivery of oxygen and nutrients through its microvasculature, which threads through neural ...

Researchers say study findings have highlighted biomarkers that could help improve early diagnosis of esophageal cancer, when it is easier to treat.

Microsurgery is a minimally invasive procedure that allows surgeons to work on small structures with exceptional precision. Microsurgery, or microscopic surgery, is a highly specialized technique ...
