As we get older, it's not uncommon to experience "senior moments," in which we forget where we parked our car or call our children by the wrong names. But currently there are no good ways to determine which memory lapses are normal parts of aging and which may signal the early stages of a severe disorder like Alzheimer's disease. In a study appearing March 7 in the journal Neuron, researchers report that data from high-resolution functional brain imaging can be used to show some of the underlying causes for differences in memory proficiency between older and younger adults.
An Italian study featured in the March issue of The Journal of Nuclear Medicine demonstrates that a novel nuclear ...

The global contrast media injectors market is expected to reach $1.4 billion by 2025, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8 percent, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc., a research firm based in San Francisco. Rising demand for minimally invasive surgical procedures is a major factor expected to boost the market during the forecast period. These devices assist surgeons in accurate insertion of contrast agents with reduced human errors, thus increasing the accuracy and efficiency of surgical procedures. They play a crucial role in intra-operative computed tomography (iCT), intra-operative magnetic resonance imaging (iMRI) and interventional cardiology. Availability of advanced injector systems for diagnosis and intra-operative imaging has boosted adoption of these systems.
In the world of breast imaging, digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) is a relative newcomer, only being adopted into clinical practice in the last 8 years. The benefits of DBT, also known as 3-D mammography, are generally understood — improved cancer detection over traditional 2-D mammography due to the ability to scroll through different slices of the breast to see lesions undetectable in two dimensions. While the evidence for DBT has been mounting, new data reveal the technology has seen explosive growth in the last 18 months.
