Researchers have discovered a novel, non-invasive way to measure blood flow to the brains of newborn children at the bedside -- a method that has the potential to enhance diagnosis and treatment ...

Blood flow meter devices measure the rate of blood flow through blood vessels, providing valuable vascular assessment data for physicians. These devices aid in maintaining the balance between tissue ...

Caltech and the Keck School of Medicine of USC have developed a new laser-based headset device that can noninvasively measure blood flow and volume. Caltech postdoctoral scholar Simon Mahler is shown ...

Monitoring brain blood flow in a volunteer with the new functional interferometric diffusing wave spectroscopy device invented at UC Davis. The new technology promises easier, cheaper measurements of ...

In order to function properly, the brain requires a steady flow of blood through the cerebral arteries and veins, which deliver oxygen and nutrients and also remove metabolic byproducts. Therefore, ...

A new, noninvasive method for measuring brain blood flow with light has been developed by biomedical engineers and neurologists at the University of California, Davis, and used to detect brain ...

Embedded in cell phones, rings, bracelets or watches, the novel tools aim to make it easier to manage hypertension. But they must still pass several tests before hitting the clinic. By Matías A. Loewy ...

Diffuse correlation spectroscopy (DCS) is used for noninvasive detection of blood flow. However, current DCS devices need to be improved to increase the signal-to-noise ratio for more accurate ...
