Multi-scale imaging technique may enable objective assessment of myofascial pain
Song Hu, Yong Wang team up to find quantitative biomarkers for clinical pain management
High-tech imaging focuses on oxygen metabolism in newborn brain
Our brains consume huge amounts of energy and rely on oxygen supplied by blood vessels. When the brains of infants are deprived of oxygen for any reason, it can lead to brain injury that causes cerebral palsy, epilepsy or cognitive impairment. Song Hu, PhD, associate professor of biomedical engineering in the McKelvey School of Engineering […]
New practical method of producing Airy beams could enhance ultrasound
Hong Chen’s lab develops technique to generate Airy beams for ultrasound focusing
Study into potassium channels reveals novel mechanism behind epilepsy, drug modulation
Epilepsy is a neurological disorder that arises from abnormal electrical activity in the brain leading to seizures. These seizure events can have a variety of causes, including genetic variants in a family of proteins that regulate potassium ions in the brain. Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis have led an international team to take […]
Modeling personalized medicine for neurocritical illness
ShiNung Ching, collaborators seek to develop predictive model for secondary brain injuries
A one-two punch for photoacoustic imaging
Song Hu combines hardware and machine learning for precision imaging technique
Wearable ultrasound sensors for human brain in development
A submarine can inadvertently reveal its location because of cavitation, a condition that creates bubbles underwater that burst, then emit sound waves that can be detected by sonar. A team of biomedical engineers at Washington University in St. Louis plans to use the same concept to detect cavitation in human brains that may contribute to […]
Bayly-led team to study mechanical strains, stresses in traumatic brain injury
Philip Bayly, collaborators to use imaging, modeling to look at waves in the brain
Low-cost, 3D printed device may broaden use of focused ultrasound technique
Hong Chen’s lab created an $80 device that is accurate and easy to use
