A special surgical microscope to illuminate blood, bacterial biofilms, cartilage, and soft tissue

Inflammation of the middle ear is often triggered a cholesteatoma, an aggressive form of chronic otitis media. In order to detect cholesteatomas and bacterial biofilms and to remove them safely, the new collaborative project 'BetterView' is working on a special surgical microscope.

New radio-labeled molecule may allow a non-invasive approach to monitor inflammation in real time

Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have developed a new radio-labeled molecule capable of selectively reacting with certain high-energy radicals that are characteristic of innate immune activity, which may allow a non-invasive approach to monitor inflammation in real time by positron emission tomography (PET) imaging.
