Continuous imaging of internal organs over days could provide crucial information about health and diseases and enable insights into developmental biology. Getting an ultrasound could soon become as easy as putting on a bandage, thanks to recent innovations by a team at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Researchers have developed a new bioadhesive ultrasound […]
Neuropathy is the most common complication in Diabetes Mellitus patients, mainly if they have several years with the disease. The main type of this complication is the diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). One of the new treatments of diabetes insulin-dependent (type 1), is the insulin pump, it is a continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion, and it has […]
Ultrasound imaging (sonography) uses high-frequency sound waves to view inside the body. Because ultrasound images are captured in real-time, they can also show the movement of the body’s internal organs as well as blood flowing through the blood vessels. Unlike X-ray imaging, there is no ionizing radiation exposure associated with ultrasound imaging. Current ultrasound imaging […]
There are many factors that can contribute to the development of type 2 diabetes. Some of them include ubiquitous food availability, irregular sleep-activity patterns, and frequent exposure to artificial light sources that can lead to a disrupted day-night rhythm. In Western societies, most people spread their daily food intake over a minimum of 14 hours, […]
