Injected into the muscle tissue via a catheter, the biocompatible platinum-iridium/silicone implants measure approximately 3 cm long (1.2 in) by 1 mm thick. Each device is equipped with two electrodes ...

Designed for home use, the EMSense Massager reflects a broader shift toward accessible wellness tools that support muscle ...

A research group from Aarhus University has developed a special biocompatible electrode for electrical muscle stimulation that the group has integrated and 3D-printed onto medical support stockings.

In-situ dual-modal detection of electrophysiology and blood oxygen levels during muscle-vascular activity necessitates an integrated monitoring system. This system includes a transparent electrode for ...

Cancer patients often lose excessive amounts of weight. This affects up to 80% of patients and is mainly due to a decrease in muscle mass and fatty tissue. This cancer-induced cachexia (CIC) is ...

Scientists in Israel have leveraged commercially available sensors to develop an advanced lie-detection system they say outperforms any other known method. The technology relies on electrodes attached ...
