Microscopic images of human tissue are a cornerstone of biomedical research and clinical diagnostics. Yet despite their ...

Polarimetric measurements of terahertz scattering can detect subtle changes in tissue architecture that result from disease or damage. For example, terahertz measurements demonstrated signal contrast ...

Researchers at the Ludwig Center at Harvard have developed a platform technology for imaging that enables integration of the methods of microscopic analysis long employed in pathology laboratories ...

Oregon State University research has revealed a crucial mechanism behind one of humankind's most deadly physiological processes: the movement of malignant cells from one part of the body to another.

A team of scientists from the Li Ka Shing Faculty of Medicine of The University of Hong Kong (HKU) and Imperial College London has made a breakthrough in the visualization of human brain tissue at the ...

In histopathology dyes are often used on tissues to denote areas that may be of interest under further microscopic attention and to orient excised tissue samples sent to the lab. In order to prevent ...

An analysis of a 30,000-year-old fossil vulture from Central Italy has revealed for the first time that volcanic rock can preserve microscopic details in feathers -- the first ever record of such a ...

Inclusive nature: snapshots of three different structures of tissue coexistence simulated in the study. (Courtesy: N Ganai et al/New Journal of Physics Altering the adhesion at the interface between ...

Researchers at the University of Michigan have detected microscopic twists in the internal structure of plant and animal tissue without using potentially harmful X-rays. The approach involves rotating ...

Loss of heterozygosity of the RB gene is a poor prognostic factor in patients with osteosarcoma. Treatment of patients with melanoma of the extremity using hyperthermic isolated limb perfusion with ...

A central tenet in neuroscience has been that the amount of brain tissue goes in one direction throughout our lives -- from too much to just enough. A new study finds that in some cases the brain can ...

Recent advances in electronics and optics have opened new possibilities for terahertz (THz) waves—an invisible type of light that falls between infrared light and microwaves on the spectrum. The use ...
