Quantum Properties in Atom-thick Semiconductors Offer New Way to Detect Electrical Signals in Cells
University of California San Diego

For decades, scientists have relied on electrodes and dyes to track the electrical activity of living cells. Now, UC San Diego engineers have discovered that quantum materials just a single atom thick can do the job with high speed and resolution—using only light.

Osteoporosis Screening with Opportunistic CT Could Double Screening Rates and Avoid up to 2.5 Billion in Medical Costs
Harvey L. Neiman Health Policy Institute

A new multi-institute study demonstrates the potential prevention and economic benefits from the opportunistic use of CT (OCT), defined as screening performed using CT images that were collected for a different purpose. The study, published in the Journal of the American College of Radiology, showed that using CT imaging that includes the upper lumbar spine in its field of view to screen for osteoporosis could increase the screening rate in the Medicare fee-for-service population by 113% without requiring any additional imaging. The work was a collaboration among researchers from the Harvey L. Neiman Health Policy Institute, New York University Langone Health, and Massachusetts General Hospital.

UTSW researchers use focused ultrasound to identify stroke biomarkers
UT Southwestern Medical Center

A molecule called glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) rose significantly in the blood of patients who underwent high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), a procedure that is used to treat tremors and causes damage similar to a small stroke, UT Southwestern Medical Center scientists discovered in a new study. Their findings, published in Brain Communications, reveal a potential biomarker for stroke and could eventually lead to blood tests that quickly diagnose brain injuries.
