New materials developed at the University of Surrey could pave the way for a new generation of flexible X-ray detectors, with potential applications ranging from cancer treatment to better airport scanners. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2023-11-bendy-x-ray-detectors-revolutionize-cancer.html Sun, 05 Nov 2023 19:00:01 EST news618224870 A team of researchers led by Tatsuo Kawai of Massachusetts General Hospital, Department of Surgery, Harvard Medical School, Boston, has found a less-intensive way to promote bone marrow transfusion success. In their paper, "Selective Bcl-2 inhibition promotes hematopoietic chimerism and allograft tolerance without myelosuppression in nonhuman primates," published in Science Translational Medicine, the researchers detail how a currently FDA-approved drug for the treatment of chronic lymphocyte leukemia (CLL) can be used to make hematopoietic stem cell transplantation conditioning regimens less toxic. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2023-04-toxic-conditioning-regimen-bone-marrow.html Fri, 07 Apr 2023 11:00:06 EDT news600079816 Researchers at the University of Surrey have identified key design rules for making curved X-ray detectors, bringing clearer and safer X-rays a step closer to reality. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2021-11-safer-x-rays-therapy-closer.html Thu, 18 Nov 2021 09:47:50 EST news556451267 (Medical Xpress)—Nothing says "don't mess with me" like a deeply-fissured cortex. Even the sharpest jaws and claws in the animal kingdom are worthless without some serious thought muscle under the hood. But beneath the highly convoluted membrane covering the brains of the evolutionary upper crust hides the original crumpled processor—the cerebellum. How this organ might actually work is the subject of a review published in Frontiers of Systems Neuroscience by researchers at the University of Minnesota. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2014-07-cerebellum.html Thu, 17 Jul 2014 10:10:01 EDT news324788791
