Way to look younger-facial exercise As we get older, wrinkles are creeping in around our eyes, and skin is certainly not as firm as it once was. Is there any way to slow down the way we are getting old?   A new study shows that exercising our face for at least 30 minutes every other day can regulate facial muscles and lead to a reduction in signs of aging.   Dr. Murad Alam, MD, Dermatology professor at the Feinberg School of Medicine at Northwestern University in Chicago, Illinois, and colleagues recently published the study in the JAMA Journal of...

3-D ultrasound  is rapidly emerging from the research and development stage   3-D ultrasound can provide the three-dimensional image we are scanning. The sensor captures a series of images of the subject, sheets, and then computer processes the images and presents them as three-dimensional images. Using computer control, operators have access to views that may not be able to use ordinary two-dimensional ultrasound scans. Three-dimensional ultrasound is rapidly emerging from the research and development stage, and is now widely used in clinical practice. This is also the focus of the news. Faster, more advanced business models are entering the market.    Scanning requires...

How Ultrasonic Waves are Produced - Medsinglong Ultrasound has many incredible applications in medical sciences and manufacturing industries. The most important of these is ultrasonic cleaning, which uses ultrasonic waves to propagate in liquids, creating cavitation bubbles that are more thoroughly cleaned than solvents and scrubbed separately.   Humans cannot hear ultrasonic waves, but some animals (such as bats) can hear them. Their influence on materials and their abilities may look like magic, but they are pure science. Unlike the normal way of dealing with sounds that usually strike surfaces, ultrasonic waves are made using electrical equipment that vibrates at...

Multifunction CardioGramTM (MCGTM) is the world's first Internet based non-invasive diagnostic tool that adopts Applied Systems Engineering prinicpals using Digital Signal Processing,i.e.DSP,Data-mining and Supervised Machine Learning to aid physicians to make rapid and much more accurate diagnosis of heart diseases.It is an FDA and AMA approved to diagnose myocardial ischemia due to Coronary Artery Disease (CAD).MCG extracts resting ECG data between the two electrical cources (leads V5 and II) to measure the interactions between Myocardium and intra-cardiac blood flow to accurately detect CAD without the stress,radiation,chemicals and invasiveness of the current modality set.This ground breaking Computational Systems Biology technology that...

The AutoAnalyzer is an automated analyzer using a flow technique called continuous flow analysis (CFA),The first applications were for clinical analysis,but methods for industrial analysis soon followed.The design is based on separating a continuously flowing stream with air bubbles.Operating principleIn continuous flow analysis (CFA) a continuous stream of material is divided by air bubbles into discrete segments in which chemical reactions occur,The continuous stream of liquid samples and reagents are combined and transported in tubing and mixing coils,The tubing passes the samples from one apparatus to the other with each apparatus performing different functions,such as distillation,dialysis,extraction,ion exchange,heating,incubation,and subsequent recording of...
