Researchers from the University of Technology Delft, the Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience and Caltech have developed a ...

While medical centers use ultrasound daily, so far this technology has not been capable of observing body tissues at the scale of cells. Physicists have now developed a microscopy technique based on ...

The blue lines represent two ultrasound waves intersecting in an X-shape pattern to scan cells and capillaries in body tissue. The cells and capillary vessels are labelled with ultrasound probes ...

The shapes of these cells are puzzling. They have wavy edges and protrusions that fit together a bit like puzzle pieces. But what is it for? New research looking at the lymph capillary cells ...

While medical centers use ultrasound daily, so far this technology is not capable of observing body tissues at the scale of ...

Ultrasound is one of the most widely used imaging techniques in medicine, but up until recently it hardly played a role in imaging the tiniest ...

The cells that make up the walls of the finest of all lymphatic vessels have a lobate, oak leaf-like shape that makes them particularly resilient to changes in fluid volume. A similar cell shape also ...

The lobate shape of lymphatic endothelial cells puzzled researchers—now they’ve found it helps stabilize lymphatic ...

Munich news, health insurance, technology, jobs and other topics for expatriates. The Eye Newspapers covers daily news and offers services for foreigners.

The setup moves toward “an appreciation for what it’s like to be a cell in a body,” molecular cell biologist Buzz Baum of University College London who was not involved in the work told Science News.
