Study Uses MRI to Determine the Progression of Cerebral Malaria in Malawi
Researchers have used Magnetic Resonance Imaging to find the pathogenetic processes and causes of death in children suffering from Cerebral Malaria in Malawi. MRI scans only became available in Malawi in the year 2009. Between 15%–25% of children in Africa suffering from cerebral malaria, which causes brain swelling, and an increase in intracranial pressure, die from the condition. More...26 Apr 2015
Innovative Technique Promises New Inroads into the Diagnosis and Management of Pain
Magnetic Resonance Neurography is emerging as a promising technique for diagnosis and management of musculoskeletal pain. The annual cost of treating chronic pain and lost productivity is more than that of diabetes, heart disease, and cancer combined. More...19 Apr 2015
