- Virginia Tech Launches ‘Next Generation’ Human Brain Imaging Lab ()
Summary: Virginia Tech researchers have received a grant to deploy a new brain imaging technology called optically pumped magnetometry which can assist with studying the nuances of social interactions. Source: Virginia Tech As you read this story, your brain’s cells are generating electrical currents that emit infinitesimally small magnetic fields. Now, Virginia Tech scientists can […]
- Axonics’ SNM system wins FDA nod for 3T-MRI scans ()
Axonics Modulation Technologies (NSDQ:AXNX) announced today that it has won FDA approval for full-body 3 Tesla (T) MRI scanning for patients implanted with its r-SNM sacral neuromodulation system. The premarket approval supplement represents an upgrade from a previous PMA conditional labeling for r-SNM, which allowed for for full-body scans using 1.5T MRI scanners. With this […]
- CT Scan with living tissues or bodies or living human beings ()
Hi, I don’t know if there is a scanner that exists like a CT Scan but for living tissue, I did a google search without finding anything, maybe a PET/CT Scan. I had a discussion with my father following a visualisation on youtube about a CT Scanner this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9usf3kJL7mc (digital autopsy) In the future […]

As Steve Graber, Alcor’s Chief Technical Coordinator wrote: “A big step forward for the Alcor CT Scan analysis program last year was the development of a CT color lookup table that allows us to now determine the overall perfusion level for each Alcor patient. This is the first time that we’ve been able to ‘look […]
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_autopsy A digital autopsy is a non-invasive autopsy ()
A digital autopsy is a non-invasive autopsy in which digital imaging technology, such as with Computerized Tomography (CT) or Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans, is used to develop three-dimensional images for a virtual exploration of a human body. Digital autopsy, simply, means conducting autopsy in computerized environment by digital tools. The first step of digitizing […]
