The term hybrid imaging essentially refers to hardware-based image fusion where two different imaging modalities are combined in a single equipment. As image fusion through the hardware approach offers several advantages over software-based image fusion, such as accuracy of image co-registration and ease of image fusion through a single scan sessio...

The use of traditional bone healing solution like autograft is well known. However, with major technology breakthrough, several innovative bone healing products have been developed for the benefit of patients as well as surgeons. This Technical Insights Research Service (RS) highlights the innovations in bone repair and replacement technologies, an...

The small animal imaging or in vivo preclinical imaging market began to come into existence from the early 1990s when scientists studying biology and disease processes realized that clinical image could help them reduce the cost of research and time span of their animal studies. At present, medical imaging is an important tool in research applicati...

In almost all parts of the world, women live longer than men. The exact cause behind the differential between male and female life expectancy is uncertain, but it appears to be partly explained by biological advantages and partly by environmental and behavioral factors. However, as women outlive men, they are more prone to suffering from ill healt...

Biosensors are devices which sense biological signals/analyte and then use a transducer to change it to a corresponding electrical energy. Biosensors are differentiated based on the element being analyzed, primarily biological element comprising of enzymes, antibodies, microbes, proteins, etc. and the transducer type being used for analyzing such a...
